Okay, I am just confusing myself more and more everyday reading through other peoples problems with their roms and would like some help..... I have a softmodded xbox with the unleashX dashboard, I have installed xSNES9x and Surreal64xxx emulators. ftping s not an option to me, so I did all this with cdrw's and dvds. I downloaded the SNES roms that I wanted from justroms.com and I put the on a cdrw. The roms wont copy over to E/xSNES9x/Roms but if I go to DVDmedia option in the emulator menu, they play fine. Is there any way to copy them over to the correct folder to play without a cd in the xbox all the time.

Now for Surreal..... I could only get Goldeneye and Banjo-kazooie to copy over to the roms folder, but when I launch them, they stay on the "loading ROM" screen.

ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!!!!!

Quite possibly a long file name or illegal character issue.

try renaming the roms to just the name of the game and the .xxx whatever.. not all the (a)![ht] type junk. Then use unleash file manager to copy them to the right directory (in my snes9x it's media/snes9x/roms in the emu folder)
Same with surreal64, plus you have to refresh the roms list by clicking the arrow in the bottom left of the main rom screen.
