[bold]HOW TO CREATE BACKUPS USING QWIX & NERO[/bold]

This tutorial is intended to show you how to take xbox files stored within your computer, turn them into an .iso (image), and burn that image to disc(DvD-R) as working backup.

What you need to accomplish this:
->Qwix 1.01:http://www.teamavalaunch.com/qwix/
->NERO:AVAILABLE on Afterdawn
->Internal/External DvD Burner installed on your PC/Laptop

3. This image show the game files you wanted transformed into an iso in a folder on the desktop called xbox


4. Now select CREATE ISO


5. Select where you want the ISO image to be saved


6. Once complete, you'll get this message


[bold]NOW IT'S TIME TO BURN IT TO DISC[/bold]

1. Open NERO, cancel the new compilation window that pops up, Go to file and select Open


2. Now open the folder of the iso image you just made


3. Select the correct file type so you can see your iso image


4. Select the iso image and click open


5. Select the disc format, of course its DvD


6. Make your settings look like the ones below and burn your backup

If you wanna go the extra mile with your backups you can make game disc covers or even sleeve covers for the exterior casing.

Hope this helps out at least one person!!

 

Hey buddy, this is a great tutorial. Keep up the good work!

 

the tutorial is ok, but you really do go about it hte hard way.
you can use Qwix to extract the game and create the image in 1 go. Instead of copying the game to the hard drive first.
Just use the ftp folder button instead. and instead of opening nero and telling it to open the iso, just keep a shortcut to nero in the folder where you save your iso's that way all you have to do is drag the iso onto the shortcut and nero will automatically recognise it and will be ready to burn. then just hit the burn button.

 

Alright guys, I just made a tutorial for using Craxtion v3.1 and DVD Decrypter. Check it out and let me know what you think...

You're right and that is how I do it as well but I got a lot of PMs where people said they had the files in their computer and wanted to make a backup to disc but didn't know how so [bold]THIS ONES FOR YA'LL[/bold]

I'm working on more tutorials right now...

Quick Question: Do I need to ask mooderators to close my tutorials so it sticks in bold at the top of the forum list?

 

The moderators might look over this thread and sticky it, otherwise if you want it stickied you will need to PM one of them to see if they will do it for you...

 

to submit guides go here: http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/submit.cfm

 

Thanks Bubba

 

don't expect a quick reply when submitting the guide. I submitted one on how to create evoX trainers about 4 days ago and still aint got a response.

 

No big deal...As long as people can see it and benefit from it I'm cool with whatever. Maybe the staff will just see it like you guys did and take it upon themselves to post it.

 

hey pimp dawg do u even use Qxix? in ur tutorial i see you use crxtion and descrypter but were do u you use the QXIX?

 

how do i open Qwix 1.01?

 

hey pimp dawg i got another question or anyone. i dont no how to FTP so i read ur manuall you made. when i change my IP adress do i have to change it back after i am done using FTP? WHERE do i connect the crossover cable to? these might sound like stupid question and everything but i am a newb at burning xbox games. thanx

 

uronagain, yeah I have used Qwix. I just don't have the time to make a guide w/ full pictures for it.

Hook up one end of the crossover cable to your computer's NIC (the ethernet port) and the other end to your Xbox. You may or may not need to turn back your IP address to "obtain IP address automatically". That depends on your ISP (internet service provider).

 

when i download Qwix, how do i opened?

 

ok thanx a lot that will help. when do i use QWIX. can u tell me what the order is of qwix creaxtion and decrypter. like when i use all of them? thanx a lot

 

You use the programs seperately, not together. You can use either Craxtion or Qwix to create the Xbox ISO, and then use DVD Decrtyper, Nero, Alcohol 120 to burn the X-ISO.

sub07, Make sure that you have winrar as it comes in a .rar Open it up and double click Qwix.exe

 

you're the man..thanks a lot.

 

what nero version do you recommed me? i got nero express 5.5.9.9..that's good or do i need the new version?
