    Do you have a modified xbox? Do you have a larger hdd installed?

    You can use Nero to make backups but first you have to rip the game from your xbox hdd.

    Here's how it works:
    *You put an xbox game into your modded xbox. There are a few programs you can use to rip the game to the xbox hdd. (i.e. DvD2Xbox, HDD Loader)
    *Assuming you have your Xbox Netowrked to your PC (FTP capability) you transfer the game files to your xbox with programs like (Qwix, Craxtion, Flash FXP)
    *Then.........you can use a program like Nero to back up the game to DvD-R

    If you don't have a larger (after market) hdd installed on your xbox you are [bold]limited[/bold] on capabilities. You can save a game or two (stretchin it when I say two) to your xbox but that's it. At the most I think you can get about 6 or 7 GBs freed up.

    oh ok confusing...my mates friends copy them from the net.. didnt realise u had to link up xbox to the comp... thought it would be as simple as just burning it like a normal cd.. or dvd date cd or something...

    No, it's not confusing. Just think about what's being said.

    You're saying the files were download from the net onto your/their PC.

    I'm saying transfer the file from the xbox to the PC

    Either way, the game files end up on the PC. Now for the help:

    Your goal is to burn the .iso file to disc...very simple.
    this will help you do it:

    Amost forgot. You'll need Qwix and I'm sure you already have Nero to follow this guide. Qwix comes in handy if the file is not already an .iso.

    Get Qwix here: http://www.teamavalaunch.com/qwix/index.html

    **edit: YOU'RE WELCOME
