    Hey everyone, 
     
    I supposed I could have posted in the numerous bugs and glitches threads in this forum, but this is pretty concerning because... I can't play. 
     
    I booted up New Vegas, and as usual in the main menu, the Classic Pack DLC loads. I hit continue, it starts to load but freezes about 2 seconds later.  It happened several times. 
    So I thought about loading another save. More progress this time, but I get a prompt saying "this DLC is no longer available, continue loading anyway?" I hit yes and immediately get another message, " The storage device is no longer available." I've checked and rechecked that I have the save file on my HDD - it's there 100%. 
     
    My questions are: 
     
    1.) Has anyone else experienced this? 
    2.) If so, any tips? 
    3.) Could this have anything to do with NNXE and its glitches? 
      
    THANK YOU in advance.

    Just a guess but could be a problem with how wonky XBL has been with game downloads lately.
    Have you tried disabling the DLC ?

    @Tennmuerti: It seems that the only way to disable the DLC is to delete it from my hard drive. I'm willing to do it, I'm just not sure if it will mess up my game saves.

    Well, I lost 2 hours of gameplay, but it worked. DLC deleted as well as the two most recent saves.  
     
    I sincerely hope this happens to NO ONE else. It fucking sucks.

    I don't know anything about the DLC. But it froze on me during loading screens twice, luckily I had saves very close to when it happend so I didn't really lose progress.

    I've had it freeze while loading, while saving, and while I died (endless loading loop), but, luckily, no saves have been corrupted. Besides, even if a save gets fucked, I have 30 other saves to reload from.

    I have a freeze at a loading screen at least once a day, where the little ball stops spinning in the roulette wheel. Ditto a hard freeze just randomly. Only one corrupted save so far *fingers crossed*  Still waiting for more patches.

    @weegieanawrench:  I had this problem, just return it to Gamestop and they will return and let you know that your not the only one. SImple.
