Default Ur Gamertag on ur Desktop

If u fancy it, here's how to get it done:

If you are using windows XP

Right click on your desktop go to properties, go to desktop, click on Customize Desktop, Click on Web Tag, Click new, then type this

http://gamercard.xbox.com/yourgametag.card



Click Okay

It should then synchronize

When thats done click okay then apply and the gamercard will be on your desktop

I got mine to work, of course, I'm still sitting at a 0 gamer score.

Does this thing update automatically? How do you update it, if it doesn't?

Highlight your gamecard string. Hit properties and then select the schedule tab. Select "use the following schedule" and hit the add button. Now enter your sychronize schedule.
