    Dammit, Im trying to send a couple of big rom packages from my pc to the Xbox but half of them arent transferring, FlashFXP is just giving a transfer error and then it'll move onto the next rom in the folder, it seems completely random which ones fail even though I know they work because Ive tested them with my pc emulators, anyone ever see this happening? I have a hardmodded Xbox with XBMC as my dash, theres plenty of space on the HDD and I never get transfer errors even though Ive transferred loads of Xbox games this week, its just the roms that seem to fail for some reason...

    EDIT: The roms are in various sizes for various consoles, it seems to be completely random which ones fail.

    The file names might not be compatible with the Xbox file system. As in, they're either too long or contain unsupported symbols (commas, brackets, etc). I often have this problem when transferring rom packs as well.
