all you do is open up Nero and burn it with Nero image burning, then put it in your box and let the xbox copy it.

Oh, well once you get it to the xbox iso, you need a xbox iso extractor. WinRAR wont work because it thinks it a damaged iso. you need a xbox extracting program. go to http://www.xbox-scene.com and go to the tutorial section, your answer will be there.

Im not too sure to be honest with you. are you connected through a crossover cable or through a hub/switch/router? I used to be connected through a crossover cable and it seemed to me that it was a little slower than through my router, but not much. I would check with xbox-scene, there is the guy named mr robinson there that has an awesome tutorial on networking the xbox. look it up.

All these extra steps arn't necessary take the iso, load it on Qwix and then just ftp it, Qwix will unextract the iso by itself automatically

i have used qwix and then ftp the game to the xbox and the game title shows in the games list but when i select the game to play the xbox screen goes blank and nothing happens, i am not sure if the files were damaged but i dont think so cuz it happens to all the different games that i have as iso. any ideas what i could be doing wrong, the reason i need to ftp games to xbox is that the dvd drive is broken.
thanks for any help. :)

iv only had one game load to a blank screen before but i got a different copy of it and it worked fine. so it was obviousely the game that was bad. it is either an uncomplete download or some files r currupted. if its neither of those than i dont know what is going wrong, u seem to be doing everything wright. try another game

EVILZED, that is the most basic of basic question. wread the guides ^ and look on google youll figure it out. FTP(file transfer protocal) is use to transport files from 1 computer to another.(or xbox to computer);)

I have a question regarding backing up games. What should be written to the new disc 1. an iso file or 2. an iso file that has been un-packed. I want to be able to copy a game to a disc and put it in my xbox machine and just play it. So far I am just in the making coaster buisness and if any one would like to buy some let me know.
