This Website says I can…..
2. I have a memory card but to dl just game content (ex. Wepons, Levels, and Maps) do I need a Hard Drive?
3. To connect to Xbox Live Marketplace with dial up what equipment do I need to do this?
4. To buy Xbox Live Marketplace content do I need be a member of Xbox Live? If so how do I do this?
5. Also, If anyone has step by step instructions to connect to Xbox Live Marketplace for Windows Vista please would you give them to me.
Thank You
Dial-up is too slow to use Xbox Live – even downloading is going to take ages as Halo 3 Map Packs are almost half a gigabyte in size.
An issue with using a memory card instead of a hard drive is that the capacity of your memory card will run out faster (other than that, you’re okay using a memory card so long as you do not intend playing original Xbox games as this requires a hard drive for backward compatibility).
To connect to Xbox Live Marketplace you’ll need an Xbox 360, a memory card or hard drive and a broadband connection you can connect your Xbox 360 to. Then, once connected you have to create a free SILVER account.
Xbox Live marketplace is only for the Xbox 360, Windows Vista can use Xbox Live for games only – just like the Original Xbox which can still play games but cannot use the Marketplace.

Your best bet is to take your Xbox 360 to a friend’s house who has a high speed internet connection. For game DLC you will need a hard drive. You can sign up for a free Xbox Live Silver account on your Xbox itself once you are online with it.
Warning: do not download content to your hard drive by using another friend’s console. The license will go to your friend’s console and will not work on your own.
