    Finding your Xbox version:

    http://xbox-scene.com/versions_1.php

    Some skins allow you to see how much memory you have left on your HD. Or you can use programs to check and see such as DVD2Xbox.

    I take it you bought a premodded Xbox?

    I have dvd2xbox but it's confusing. There's like D,E,F,G drives. When you want to switch games do you push eject button? that's what i did and it works but the xbox reboots. Is it safe to turn the xbox off when playing a game? Thanks pimp dawg it seems like you know everything about xbox.

    Well, the drives that have the most space are the F: and G: So that is where you should DL your games to. The Xbox should not reboot if you press the eject button.?. So I don't know whats going on there.

    When your playing a game off of the HD, you should exit back to the dashboard by pressing R+L+Back+Start. It really doesn't hurt the HD to much by powering off your Xbox, but it doesn't help it at all either. But it's like a computer, you don't just turn it off in the middle of a game, you exit to the windows screen and then power it off.

    haha, I don't know a lot, but I know the basics and some...

    Well, you need to rip your Xbox games from either your Xbox HD or Xbox game disc to your computer in order to back them up, because your computer cannot read Xbox discs.

    You can also just DL games to eliminate FTPing...

    When are your Xbox lights changing colors? Does your Xbox still boot fine when they are changing colors?

    Sorry buddy, I've been on vacation since Tues. and I did not have internet access where I was at!

    Ok, so now to answer some of your questions...

    Ok, so it does not do it all the time then. I would check your chip install and make sure that it is installed 100% correctly and also make sure to put some electrical tape over your soldered pin header on the LPC points and also put some tape over the D0 and any other points that are soldered to eliminate possible shorts that could be occuring. That should take care of your fragging problem.

    I'm really not sure, I have never tried that before. I would think the quality would still be good if I had to take an educated guess.

    Follow this guide when connecting your Xbox through a router to make sure everything is hooked up right, http://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/connect/router.htm Now, what dashboard are you using? Are you following my FTPing tutorial? http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2/213943#1219008

    So you figured out how to burn game then?

    Well, this is quite easy to do. But first, I want to ask what dashboard you are using and how you loaded on your apps, emulators, etc. (for example, did you use slayers?)

    I'm a little confused at what your asking... You want to play games off of a GBA Movie player on your GBA handheld? If that's what your asking then I'm not sure if you can do that. I know you can get flashpacks for a GBA and load GBA roms on there.

    My temp. is usually around 130-140F so that is around normal in my opinion.

    Well, 147 is not to bad for a temp. If you are worried, just increase your fan speed 5-10% and it should cool it down. But 147 should be just fine.

    If you want to delete games off of your HD and add games, just FTP into your Xbox and find where your games are being saved to. If they are Xbox games, they should be in your F: or G: in a Games folder. If they are roms, then they should be in an emulators folder on your E:... or F: or G: if you have an upgraded HD.

    Yes, you can transfer the GBA roms on your Xbox back to your computer and then you can load the GBA roms onto your GBA flashpack.
