Do l need to put the chip in before l can put games on to the xboxs harddrive

 

Yes. Modifiying your xbox is required to do any copying or transfering of games.

 

hi whats a softmod and l live in austrila were is the best place to get a chip from


thanks Ross

 

A softmod is a way to modify your xbox without putting in a chip. As the name implies, it is a mod using only software.

A softmod mimics a hardmod, and will allow you to do all the same cool things, but using completely free software.

I softmodded my XBOX, and haven't looked back.

 

ok thanks were do u get the soft mod from and how to put it on to the xbox and if u put a new dasbord to you losse your data and do you need to put a new bios on too

thank ross

 

Read this nice tutorial all about Softmodding.

hi great tut... ive got all the stuff now and im trying to FTP and on flash FXP it just does the normal error thing. all my i.p settings are correct i know they are the xbox's i.p is 192.168.0.100 and i set my i.p. on the computer to 192.168.0.1. so anyways i tried using qwix and it said language text missing. can somebody help? oh and ive got a connection between my xbox and computer because when i turn on the xbox the local area connections thing pops up and says connected so...yeah please help!!!

 

It could be a firewall issue.

Make a rule to allow all traffic (incoming and outgoing) to the XBOX's ip.

That was my issue.

 

I Need HELP!

I am using this dvd burner (http://www.officemax.com/max/solutions/product/prodBlock.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=yes&prodBlockOID=1611367421&expansionOID=-536892754) and DVD+RW disks. I made a halo 2 iso with Qwix then I burned the iso with Dvd Decrypter and I tried Nero. The disk doesn't read on my modded evox dashboard.

Am I using the wrong type of disk, do I need only DVD-R?
Or am I doing somthing else wrong?

 

It look like that is ok but the DVD+RW that some xbox do not read.So try a DVD-R and it will work.(all my backups are dvd-r)
What did you rip out of Halo 2 so it fits in your DVD?

 

Hi, im new at this whole burning thing and have a question. I have all the tools ready and I have my xbox connected via flashxp. Now in the tutorial it says click on the D: drive but I don't see it anywhere. I also have a game in there. Does anyone know what's wrong?

 

If your are connected from your xbox to your PC you have to see like 5 folders the F,C,D and more.(some times if you do not see the game in the D drive restart your xbox and then flashFXP and the game will be there)

 

hi, im running evox with flashFXP ftp program and ive got the ftp work fine and the xbox and my pc is happy with it. the problem ive got is i cant transfer files over about 50mb (prob). i can tranfer a 3mb mp3 over but an ep of the simpsons 175mb doesnt work. can anyone tell me y it isnt working???? i just keep on getting transfer failed.

also and other question. ive just put a 300gb hard drive in my xbox and it says thats theres only like 131gb space on there. i know i need a tool or i have to do somthing. i just dont know wat.

if anyone can help i would be very grateful.

I do not know why you can not send big files to your xbox.
If you get Slayer 2.6 for your xbox you can format the new HD and put some app and emus on it.

 

Nobody reads anything... +RW..wasting your time. Every question there could ever possibly be has been answered in this thread already..many times over. Even my computer illiterate luddite friend can set up his ftp and back up his games using the info in this thread.. I bookmarked it on his computer... Instead of asking questions I suggest reading the info provided.. +rw doesn't work and the qwix problem is down to not ftp-ing the whole set of files..some have failed because of long filenames, or damage on the disk..

@juan..take out the end credits..lol
