i'm loving xbmc so far.. it's a little buggy, but not bad and has great possibilities. today i downloaded a new skin from www.allxboxskins.com (http://www.allxboxskins.com) and copied it to the skins directory, then rebooted my xbox (probably unnessesary, but what the heck).
i then launched xbmc without a problem, went in and started scrolling through the skins and got through all the default skins no problem. however, when hit the new skin, the screen went black and froze... so, rebooted again. now when i launch xbmc, it hangs on the loading screen. i've already blown away xbmc off of my xbox and reloaded it (without the downloaded skin installed) and i'm still having the same issue. does xbmc save it's skin setting somewhere? if so, can i blow this location away to reset the skins settings? thanks!

you should not be downloading skins off of allxboxskins yet because new items are always added which make those skins obsolete.

to fix your problem, just remove the e:/tdata/0face008 and e:/udata/0face008 dirs.
