    hi all. why do i keep hearing that you cannot copy an x-box game on a pc, with a dvd burner. albeit i have never tried an original but you can copy a copy on a pc. first download any game from a torrent site. put it on a disc. then if you need to copy from that disc, then do it.
    but you all probably mean an original. so if you do i apologise in advance.

    cheers dave

    Hello all.....
    I am about to walk myself through this thread and for the first time, copy an Xbox game.
    Reading through it, it seems relatively straight forward....but I have just one question.....do I HAVE to have a modded Xbox.......?
    The reason I ask is because....I don't.
    Thanks....
    any advice will be very much appreciated.

    @restivo-from what i read, and this is my first day reading on backing up xbox games, no u cannot copy the originals. but u can download, like u said and burn it, and copy the burned one.

    @The Nube-YES YOU NEED A MODDED XBOX!!! people keep on asking this!!!

    and my question is, this one guy i know has all his games on this harddrive itself, and i was wondering how u are supposed to do that? do you have to get a different harddrive and what else?

    well in order to have your games on the harddrive, then you need a programme called dvd2xbox , its a simple programe which lets to copy the game files from cd to xbox, so you dont need to use the cd, however each game is around 3-4gb and the standard xbox HDD can only hold up 2 games max, so if you want to back up all the games that legaly own to your HDD then you will need to swap it with a larger one. ill post a link to HDD swaping tut soon. ;).

    i my self havent tried to swap , but i got every thing ready to do so all i need is a good brand new HDD. once i think i can do it with out a problem i will write a tut about that. :0 it takes time!

    I have a SOFT Modded box (NO CHIP) .. Will I be able to play the burned ISO that I download off of BitTorrent or other Bit sites???

    If I am able to.. why is it that when I copy over games from a Chip Modded box, it doesn't seem to work properly.. it'll start to run and then freezes up... Anything I can do to fix that issue?

    Either your settings are incorrect or you are using the wrong cables because FXP can't find your xbox the way it is now. It would be helpful if you posted your IP addresses and other networking info from the xbox as well as PC.

    you dont have to have dvd2xbox you can just start up your xbox ftp then open the xbox disk drive then insert the disc then close it restart your ftp by exiting out and opening up again and a new folder will apear and it is the game inside of your xbox.
