    Hi, I'm new to this whole backup thing, but I've successfully burned a few working PS2 games (both CD and DVD).
    I just wanted to know if burning games for the X-box is exactly the same process (i.e. image burning for CD-r, and direct copying for DVD-r)?
    Also, are there any non-solder chips for the x-box like there are for PS2, as I am using the slide card + swap magic disks for PS2. Is there anything like that for xbox?
    Thanks a lot for your help

    Q) is it the exact same process?

    A) Far from it

    Q) are there any non solder chips?

    A) Yes

    Q) swap magic

    A) no

    as a general guide (well actually an answer to the exact same topic name as this one, around 8 posts down) you will need



    As a BRIEF rundown of what you will need - here is a short list of what you need to do. I urge you to check out seamonkeys guides (found at the top of the backing up page ie sticky topics) and the tutorials at www.xbox-scene.com so you can get some detailed information.


    1 - you need a cross over cable for direct pc to xbox exchanges or a network setup.

    2 - You need a new dash board for the xbox ie: Evox

    3 - assign your xbox a static ip (in evox) which is in the same subnet as your computers

    4 - Obtain a ftp program ie: Flash FXP

    5 - create a new connection in Flash FXP - name - xbox password - xbox with you xbox's new ip address

    6 - Open the connection between your comp and xbox
    through flash fxp or similar

    7 - Open xbox drive, place game in, close xbox drive

    8 - Wait 'til its finished reading the disk and then open the D: folder on your xbox through flash fxp or similar

    9 - Create a folder on your pc for the game to go.

    10- open that folder and copy ALL game data (from the d drive) into the new folder you just created.

    11- when its complete (transfers fron d: to pc with a cross over are normally 1.5 meg a sec) patch the .xbe files with a program called qwix availiable from www.xbox-sceen.com - tools

    12 - Create an iso from your data with QWIX (or similar)

    13 - Burn as image on media suitable for YOUR version xbox

    14 - PLAY
