I have read so many things about how to backup xbox games, I dont know where to begin. I downloaded Nero 6.0 and then read something about craxtion and tried to download some stuff there but am not sure what I was suppose to download exactly or where to put it when I got it. Then theres something about a modchip and iso's. I'm hoping someone doesnt mind to take the time to explain everything from beginning to end. I know thats alot hope someone can help me. I dont have a DVD burner, is that necessary? or can I do it on just a cd burner.
1 - get your Xbox modded (many modchips available)
2 - Connect up your Xbox to your PC via network card
3 - Install EvolutionX (latest build - v3935)
4 - FTP from your PC to your Xbox
5 - When you are able to connect machines, it is just a case of FTP'ing the files from the Xbox "D:\" drive to an area on your PC, then use software like Xiso,SimpleX iso or Craxtion to build an iso image of the files, then burn to CD-RW or DVD media.
The above will require a little bit of reading up on. There should be tutorials/explanations on this site, or on my site, or on xbox-scene.com
Re the DVD burner issue, you will only be able to back up those Xbox games that will fit on CD-RW media. Dont use CD-R as the Xbox DVD-Rom doesn't seem to want to read them
You could also invest in an Xbox HDD upgrade and then store backups of your originals on the Xbox HDD.
