I installed the XBMC onto my E:, but I want to get rid of the MS dash, install XBMC onto the C:, and have it boot from there. I have a small hardrive, and I don't want XBMC centre to be taking up room on the E: partition.

Thing is: I want to keep some of my saved games and I don't want to go out and buy a memory unit. I can FTP in, but can I copy saved games onto my PC and then back again later?

Or, to avoid all that hassle, could I just move the XBMC files from E:, delete everything on C:, and put them there?

I was thinking I might just load XBMC onto C:, but how do I then delete it all of E:?

okay, I got XBMC set up like I wanted to. Thanks for the help.

Now I want to make it so I can install the HDD loader and rip games onto the hardrive. I can only fit one at a time, but it helps with games that are scratched.

I installed the HDD loader app onto the C: and it wouldn't come up under programs in XBMC. I then moved it over to E:, and it came up, but when i go into it, it says my chip does not support the Eject on reset trick. DOwn the bottom it says I have 0 space available, and beside that it says my Hardrive has a 0 gig capacity. Hwo do I fix this? I used to do this when I had EVox ages ago, but that was a different HD.

Oh, and with the XBMC thing, I didn't have to rename anything. it just recognized it as the default. WHen I FTP into the PC it comes up with only three drives: C, E and D. I'm sure there was at least one or two more before. Is this right?

Use dvd2xbox to rip games to your hard drive. Just install it as an application and you'll be good to go.

As for your situation with FTP, whenever you FTP with XBMC running, the cache partitions (X, Y, and Z) will not be listed. You'll have to run a different dash if you want FTP access to those.

About the game saves. There's a PC application called Xbox Game Saves Manager that you use to copy all your Xbox game saves to a PC using an FTP connection. They'll even be identified in the program, so you can select individual games to transfer back and forth as you desire.
