evox question

[silentpanda]

2 questions:

assume that i have a mod chip

1- if all i want to do is back up xbox games do i need to install a new dashboard-i.e. do i have to troll the web for the bios that most seam to have but are legally required not to talk about?

or can i just download the evox tools from gamecopyworld and burn that to a cdrw?

2 - if by some stroke of luck i did get my hands on a bios- then would i have to flash a bios or is that something that is completly unrelated to me being able to back up my own games.

thanks for the info
