I have done a stupid thing, I set my xbox to have family settings on and then forgot the 4 digit code and my password prompt.  Don't know why as my 5 year old would not be able to play the xbox without me being around.

A friend has lent me bioshock infinite but I can't play it.

Googled the problem but all the suggestions do not work for my one( it is 2 years old).

Do any of you clever bastards know how to reset to default without the 4 digit password? Or do I wait on hold for 3 days with microsoft for them to help me.

Love you long time

Trying every 4 digit combination will take you only 1 day.

Did you try the button combo method on the System Info screen?

Yeah tried about half a dozen codes, none worked.

Mate from work has had a go but it looks like I will have to contact microsoft
