A very quick overview:
To burn xbox games you need to install a mod chip into your xbox (i installed a matrix, no solder and you can update the bios without removing the mod chip).
After you get that installed, you need to run Evolution X Dashboard from a CD-RW disc or you can install it directly to your harddrive to replace the microsoft dashboard.
Once you get that installed, you will need to hook up your xbox to a network (i have a DSL router, works great). Once the xbox is on teh network and has an IP address, you will need to FTP into the xbox from your PC, enter the IP address of your XBOX. The login info is this:
user: xbox
password: xbox
(this is for the evolution x dashboard)
Once you ftp into the xbox, it will show 6 folders.
The C: is the main folder.
The D: is your XBOX's DVD Drive (thus where the game we are trying to backup is located)
Now you want to download all teh files from the D: to your computers HD.
After it finishes, you need to create an XBOX iso file (xbox games will not read in your pc's dvd drive, just will show you a layout similar to dvds just a VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folder).
Use xISO for this.
Once you create ISO, burn it to a blank dvd+rw with nero (this way you can test it before you actually use a dvd+r).
Then try to play it in your modded xbox, hopefully it will work.
The hardest part of this whole thing is finding the programs to do this and also finding BIOS's for your mod chip and finding an evolution x dashboard. i would search google or other various xbox forums.
I'll be posting my own unofficial xbox game backing up guide at my website soon, however, the programs will not available (again, due to legalities and the fact that i don't want micro$oft on my case!)
peace
