Auction House problems

RavenOfRage 07-04-2009, 2:54 PM
Anyone else having trouble with the auction house today? Last night I was getting a message saying that there were technical problems or my account had been banned. Today I can get into the auction house, but when I click on a car to view, it's picture doesn't come up. It won't let me bid either. Plus, when I do a search it occasionally comes back with nothing found. Just wondering if it's me or is this something that everyone is experiencing. Thanks.

Seems fine here, but you might want to exit out of the game (saving) to the Xbox LIVE Dashboard, then sign out of LIVE, shut down the console completely.  Then shut down your router/modem for about 60, power it back up (DO NOT reset it, just restart) to refresh the connection with your Internet Service Provider.  Then sign into LIVE again, launch the game and see how the behavior will be.

The other thing to try, if the above doesn't work, is using the Cache Maintenance as described in this Xbox Support article:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/907586/?sd=xbox  It is fairly simple to do, takes probably under a minute, and can solve graphics/display issues.

Yup, same exact issue here... It's driving me nuts!

There is no such message in Forza Motorsport 2.  Perhaps a "tampered profile" message?  If that's what you are seeing, please read the Forza Motorsport 2 FAQ - http://forzamotorsport.net/faq.htm.  There are two items which explain this message, and you may have the second instance if you are seeing the message when you are in the game and try to go to the Auction House or Gift a car.

You need to get specific information as described in the second portion, which is private information to you only, and send it by email to Turn 10 at forzafb@microsoft.com so they can investigate it on the servers and possibly fix it for you.  After they investigate, they will email back to let you know their results.

This solution does not fix the problem.

And exactly what is the problem?  It helps if you describe what is happening.
