Clear your Xbox 360's Cache
A few people have been asking me about clearing the Xbox 360's Cache.

From the main dashboard screen, head to the 'System Settings' slot from the My 'My Xbox' Tab. Then find 'Memory' and highlight the device you wish to clear and hit 'Y'. Here you should see an option called 'Clear System Cache', selecting it will perform maintenance on your system and clear it of any updates it has installed.

Sometimes this action is necessary when necessary updates fail to complete or an update causes a problem and needs to be reinstalled.

You will also notice that game updates are removed, so any glitches or exploits which have been patched will no longer be fixed meaning you can then go back and use them... providing you don't update when prompted to and that you remain offline - not accepting a necessary system update will disable you from accessing Xbox Live until you have accepted it.
