If it is new, you need to recover your gamertag to it. Otherwise, it is just like your old 360, do it from the initial dash page in top left corner...

Recover your gamertag or else it should say '# profile found' and then you click that and choose the gamertag.

If none of the above info helps, you should call MS.

Yeah, sorry about that. That's the bad thing about it, not being able to re-download the games for free on the same gamertag on a different machine, especially if you spend thousands of MS points on arcade titles then your machine dies.

Well, you can get a free data transfer cable that takes everything to your Elite, but wipes the base HDD:

And yes, you CAN re-download everything for free, you just cannot play XBLA games without being connected to live.

Well that's evil. I hope my console never breaks. Even though I only have a couple of games and they were free (Though I got a code for contra)
