Use programs such as simplexiso to make you files you ftp to your computer into a xbox image. Once you have a image (xiso), just simple ftp it into one of your drives with space.

Here is what you need to do...

1) Extract the ISO out of your first .rar file, wam-ns3.r00 (Use WinRAR to do this)

2) Now, once you get the ISO, you will need to extract it's contents into a folder. I will be using Craxtion v31 to do this, get it from http://www.craxtion.com

3) Open up Craxtion and click "File" then "ISO Extraction Mode" then click "yes" to the window that comes up.

4) Now click "Add" and find the ISO file on your computer and double click it.

5) Click "Extract ISO's" on the bottom right hand side and it will begin extracting the ISO into the folder you created.

Now, you will need to learn how to FTP to your Xbox. I have a guide for using FlashFXP, but not one for CuteFTP. It is basically the same thing, and if you can't get it, just DL an evaluation copy of FlashFXP...

Now, I take it you have an upgraded HD. So in your F: or G: partition, you will need to locate the games folder, or create one yourself if you cannot find it.

Go ahead and FTP the folder you created above directly to your Games folder.

THAT'S IT!

Well, not many people use their stock HD's to store Xbox games on them. But if there is a Games folder in you E: already, then that is all you will need. Do not create any sub folders inside of the game folders, just put in the folder of the Xbox game you wish to trasnfer to the Games folder.

Since your using the EvoX dashboard (I think) it will be in your "Games" folder. Just browse around inside of the dashboard to find it.

If u ever need to create an xiso from a mac I have the program for u or.....actually any of u i can send it to u soo just ask...Also on a different note if i am backing up my game say for instence splinetcell chaos theory. I get the files onto my comp and then send the deafult.xbe to my comp and patch it do i need to put in a games folder in the E drive. I just put it in E and then created a patched xbe and then used that to make the burnt disk. If so this could be why i can't seem to play my backups. Anyways yeah just wondering!
