    If i go into dvd2xbox that is where the games go. Just give it a try. if it does,nt work just delete the game files and try something else.

    OK i got it....workin flawlessly...heres what i did just for peeps who would like to know:

    1) I got my game files, everthing i extracted off a game disc or if u have an ISO of a game then extract the disk with XISO and save to a folder.

    2) Then FTP into ur XBOX with FlashFXP

    3) open the F: folder

    4) Select HDDLoader, you will see folders in ther named PxGame(#)(If you have games in the XBOX already) and a text file name "Game list"

    5) Now the folder you extracted the game to or saved the game to, RENAME it to "PxGame" and the next game number (example: PxGame2)

    6) Tranfer that folder into the "F:\HDDLoader" folder along with the others.

    7) Once that is finished then download the Game file text and open it and Manually type in the name of the game. (example: PXGAME2 NFL STREET 2) Then transfer that into the XBOX and overwrite the old one.

    8) Shut down FTP and Reboot the XBOX, the game should now show up in your list of games, just select it and play!!!!!

    Hope this helps someone out, I spent hours trying to figure this out!
