I dunno where to get a tutorial, and I haven't opened my xbox up yet, but this is how you mod the dreamcast to play cd-rw's and I assume you do the same thing.

When you open up you xbox, there's something near the laser called a potentameter. Which controls the intesity of the laser. It looks kind of like a striped screw. Sometimes they are covered in some kind of hot glue. well anyways, your supposed to turn it clockwise 1/10th, then check to see if your xbox reads the media. If not, turn it another 1/10th and check again. Also, it's always a good idea to mark a spot on the potentameter so you know how much you turned it. But I wouldn't turn it more than 1/4 of an inch if i were you. If you do it too much, you could make your xbox not read anything at all.

If you can get a picture of it, you can probably just follow those instructions.
