I did use a normal FTP program, it works nice (so far, only one problem).
Have made backups of some games with ordinary ftp, and burned them. Now, the first problem has accured.
When playing Desertstrike in the sewers (level 9 or so?) the game stops. Tried a couple of times. Hangs each time.

Could it be that I don't use flash xp ? Sounds strange though.

Another strange thing (maybe I'm too newbie); why ISO's ? I did atransfer to the PC HD and burned on a CD-R or sendt back to the Xbox HD. No problem. Kept the games on the PC, kept it in RAR to save space. Why ISO ? It takes longer time to extract etc., I can't se the advantages ?
You don't have to have FlashFXP, but I find it useful when it makes a list of files to be transfer before doing so. And if any file failed, it is displayed. So you can continue off where the error was. Once the transfer is done, you know for sure that all files has done transfered.

I don't ISO the game anymore. I just transfer the files and make a data DVD-R. It works better that way. Once done, I test the disc and delete the HD's files.

That's my 2 cents
