    I installed HDD Loader on my xbox since my kids never put their games away and will eventually get ruined. I picked up True Crime: NY for myself but decided to put it on the HD like the rest of the games. When I select copy in the dash it says the file name is too big and refuses to copy it. Is there any way around this?

    I have never backed up or ftp from my pc everything was always stright into the xbox, copy via HD loader and put original away.

    Now what?

    Thanks, the ftp thing is all new to me so I will give it a try as soon as I can get my xbox networked. Hope it doesn't end up being too much of a headache.

    A friend of mine tried to back up his copy of Gun and got the same message so I guess this will end up being the norm now.

    Yeah, FTP to ur PC. I would use Qwix to create an ISO. Keep the ISO name to under 16 characters. Then FTP the ISO from ur PC back to ur XBOX in E:\Games or F:\Games
