    If you're using Quix you have to have Avaluanch running on your Xbox or else it won't work.

    Get your games from Http://bitComet.com, this is a torrent site and gives you detailed info on the games your downloading, also try updating the Avalaunch on your xbox so as to be able to FTP games via Quix.

    when downloading a game does it need to be an .iso file or is there another file type that you can download like .rar or .exe or .zip and then convert them some how????

    rar or zip files wont need converting only extracting using winrar. the iso will normally be in the extract. :)

    The sound of that file is very small for such a good game. where did u get it from?? try looking at the size of the file befor you go for the next one cos i reckon thats way to small and may well be a corrupt file.

    Resident Evil 4 isn't on Xbox... only GameCube and PS2.

    Also, there are many games around 600 MBs and less. Fusion Frenzy and Alien Hominid are good examples of this.

    On a side note, I've heard the newest version of BitComet wasn't that great, so try out utorrent (micro torrent) or BitLord if you like.

    Once you have a Bittorrent client installed (BitComet, utorrent, and BitLord are all Bittorrent clients), just go on mininova.org for torrents.

    Use your normal Internet browser (IE, Firefox, Opera, etc) to go to mininova.org

    Not sure what that DHT message is. I still use an older version since I haven't had any problems with it.

    Well, just went on BitComet website. Seems as though DHT is for trackerless torrents, so don't worry about that not being connected.

    Try doing it this way.

    When the download dialog comes up, instead of selecting save, just pick "Open with..." and select BitComet. Tell me what happens when you try it that way instead.
