to backup what he has on his xbox simply use FTP to the xbox and transfer the stuff to your PC. Then do the same but from PC to xbox when you are to put it onto your own xbox.
backuping games is done like this:
make sure you have Complex Tools or DVD2xbox (I would recommend dvd2xbox), insert game disc, start dvd2xbox, select backup and then where to backup it. Wait. Done. Remove disc and play the game from hdd...  |
Thanks for the informaion, it seems helpfull but let me get this all straight becuase I forsee some bottlenecks.
On his modded X-box I did see both an f and a G partition showing up on his menu screen of that X-boxs modchip OS. If I used just one 250 gb harddrive could I set it up entirely as the F drive and after installing this drive will my X-box recognize it so I can format using the X-box or the modchips O.S.???????
A few big questions on FTP for you. Is this what your talking about?
http://www.ftpx.com/.. How do I use this in conjunction with the X-box? Do I need something other than a high speed ISP connection and a PC? How do I get my PC to read whats on X-box so I can back it up,,, Is there a certain cable I need to get or can I use something common from home to use for the backup process before my Nephew goes back overseas. I have X-box live but I'm guessing it will not play a role for this proceedure,,right? He might frown abit if I have to take his harddrive out of his X-box to back it up.
