    Has anybody on here got pes 2015. I'm having a bit of trouble here. I bought pes2015 today (disc copy) and had to install it. About 10% in the install the game was ready to play and it only consisted of a demo match between two teams. I then left for a couple of hours so that the install could finish. When I came back the install seemed to be done as there was no progress bar. When I went to play again it is still the 2 team demo match. Ive tried turning off the console and taking out the disk and putting it back in but it is still only allowing me to play this demo. Anybody got any suggestions. Should I uninstall it then install it again?

    Try uninstalling the game and disconnect from the internet and try install the game again.

    Best thing I've seen so far is that it will be a free update, windows 10 that is.

    Oh wait, free in the 1st year, and details are sketchy indeed after that.
    The update is free in the first year for Win 7, 8.1 and Phone 8.1 users. If you look to upgrade after that you will have to pay for the update.

    All updates for Windows 10 after that will be free also, according to Terry Myerson of MS (Head of the operating systems group).
    This is more than a one-time upgrade: once a Windows device is upgraded to Windows 10, we will continue to keep it current for the supported lifetime of the device – at no cost.

    Thank you so much! It worked and I can't believe how quicker it installs when not connected to the internet

    It was downloading updates as its installing when connected to the internet. Always best to turn off WiFi and install then let it download updates once installed.

    Got a problem with my xb1, it keeps freezing. Happens alot when im on internet explorer but its starting to happen now when im playing games. I was playing minecraft there and i pressed the home button just to check something and it froze so i turned off the console and turned back on and was still froze.

    A hard reset solved it but i cant keep doing that every fw days when it decides to freeze.

    Please tell me its not ****ed :(

    What power mode are you using. Instant on or power saving mode?

    I had moved between the 2 power settings and I find power saver to be less prone to freezing.
    Power saver means when you turn it off it is fully shutdown.

    When you use instant on the console remains on in a low power state. In this mode games and updates can be downloaded automatically.

    I move between the 2 power modes. If a game is coming out that I want to download remotely I leave the console on instant on mode and when that's done I switch back to power saver mode.

    Ah ya like if i have a game downloading i should put it to instant on mode? Il switch it back to power saving and see if it helps. Thanks

    Instnat on is like standby or hibernation on a PC, it's a low power mode.

    To give the xbox a hat reset hold the power button on the front for about 5 seconds it will beep and then reboot that usually fixes freezing issues.

    I did reset the xbox a few times but it only solves it temporarly

    Is it plugged into an extension lead or 4 plug adapter thing? Apparently that effects it as well. Maybe make sure that the airflow is clear around the console as well.

    Anybody heard of any rumours on when the first set of hardware changes will hit the One (larger HDD, smaller chassis etc)

    the bigger HDD has already been done, both in the Advanced warfare custom console with rotten paintjob. I think miskyboy on here fitted a bigger one internally too.

    If they use the exact same formatting maybe! I'd plug it in and see can it see it or not.

    A friend of mine bought an XBOX ONE at the weekend, I recommended it to him, and he has loads of issue with his controller randomly disconnecting and reconnecting again after a few seconds.

    The screen goes black and says that the controller has been disconnected. I am waiting on him to get a picture of the exact error message, it's only on screen for a few seconds before reconnecting. It doesn't pause the game either when it happens, so loads of cars and planes have been crashed in GTA.

    I resynced and updated the controller for him and it is still happening. It could happen 2 - 3 times in an hour.

    Anyone experienced this?

    I have a ONE also, and 2 controllers but have not this happen.

    have you tried using one of your controllers on his xbox? at least that'd tell you whether the problem is with the xbox or the controller.

    Does he have his mobile phone anywhere near his controller? My phone has knocked off my controller on me several times.

    That is the next step. Will be trying that tomorrow evening.

    Not sure about his mobile, will look into that.

    also check if theres baby listeners or stuff like that. I had one before that used to interfere with the wifi.

    Anyone having issues with recorded clips not appearing in My Clips over the last few days.

    I say XBOX Record that, the notification pops for clip recorded. But the clip isn't visible anywhere, not in Upload, not on my Feed, not in Smartglass My Clips....


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,202 ✭✭✭maximoose


    Haven't noticed that lately, but it has happened to me before alright.

    Is there something weird going on with achievements too? My 360 has been showing me a different GS than the One for the last week, usually they update straight away on sign in.

    The achievement app on the One was crashing non stop for me over the weekend. As was the friends App.

    A few Battlefield 4 achievements didn't pop, but when I went back on to try earn them again, they popped as the level was loading.
