Does anybody have Area 51? I was running SID 4.5 until I downgraded my xbox v1.0 to SID 4.0. My other xbox v1.6 is not working at the moment I have to replace to power supply. I have an issue with this game. I copied the game to the hard drive, when the game boots the main menu video screen that surrounds the game's menu doesn't load. When I click on the "Extras" and "Secrets" the video clips don't play. I also tried running the game from disc and I still have the same problems. I'm not sure if the HDD loader and Game loader of SID 4.0 is causing the game to malfunction because apparently the links no longer work, the videos are found in the appropriate directory. If anybody has this game and if you are running SID 4.0 could you please try transferring the game try booting it directly from the hard drive and see if this occurs to any of you. The reason I downgraded from SID 4.5 to 4.0 was because I upgraded from a 60GB to a 500GB drive and softmodded using an older version accidentally. I can?t upgrade back to a newer version 5.01 because my tower PC no longer works, at this point I?m screwed big time.

I solved the problem. The HDD loader and Disc backup loader of SID 4.0 creates games to malfunction, it also made my originals not function properly as well. I upgraded back to SID 5.01 and all of my games worked correctly now. It will break your games, not in the sense that they will no longer work; I mean that certain parameters when reading a backup from disc and hard drive are ignored. Inform everyone stay away from SID 4.0 only softmod using SID 4.5 & 5.01. I have nothing against 4.0 it was a great installer at the time but it causes many games to malfunction.
