    Ok I have an original Xbox version 1.0 that the dash is upto date and everything. I am trying to softmod it with a memory card that already has the files on it an original Splinter Cell game. If I boot the xbox with no game in ther system it will let me read the memory card. but if I boot the box with the game in it won't offer me the option to load saved game from memory card. Is there a setting or something that I am missing? Am I doing something wrong? Seems like it should be a fairly easy mod (softmod) but getting it started seems to be a pain so far. I would appreciate any help.

    Sounds to me like you've missed a step ie you have to copy the saved games to the hard drive, then you can remove the memory card, then boot the game and access the saved games..

But I have since resolved this. and it went off without any issues. thanks. now to just find out how to ftp and find out how to exactly to put homebrew and other apps on it.

    Good stuff; the rest is almost as easy, if you get stuff just shout back and/or refer to the 'sticky' threads up top of each of the xbox forums

    looks like you had the same problem as I had at first. try highlighting the file you want to transfer from the usb/memory card to the hard drive and then push right on the directional pad. this should change the option form just delete to copy or transfer or something like that. it's a cakewalk from there
