Easy, just go to the system settings and look MISC, then for FILE EXPLORER. Select the g: drive, then the folder with the default.xbe in it and highlight that file then hit A. I have UnleashX dash and there is no way to link the F: drive games to show up in the games directory. Only way to play is manually go into the location of the games and launch it's XBE file. Hope this helps

Thats not right, unleash x shows up any apps or games on any drive.
you need to put your games into a folder called game on the specific drive that you want to show up e.g.

f:\game\halo or whatever

If this isn't working on your xbox then their maybe something wrong with the config.xmlfile that comes with the unleash dashboard thats on your harddrive.

FTP into your harddrive and check for the following lines are their

</Settings>
<Menu>
<Item Action="LaunchDVD" >Launch DVD</Item>
<List Text="Games" Sort="On" Auto="On">
<Path>E:\Games</Path>
<Path>F:\Games</Path>
<Path>G:\Games</Path>
<Path>E:\HDDLoader</Path>
<Path>F:\HDDLoader</Path>

And under the preferences section:
the following line should be like this

<EnableDriveF>True</EnableDriveF>

its a lot easier to have them appear in the menu than to use the method that your using

Yes sharky is right you just need to change your config.xml file and enter the information that he stated above.....but that is on UnleashX which were assuming you have....EvoX would be the same idea but i believe there is an .ini file that would have to be altered.....

Hi, I'm having the same problem. I've FTP a game to the 'G' drive and I can see it there from the PC but when I reboot xbox I can't see it on there. I'm using Slayers Evo-X and I must warn you I'm a complete n00b with this :(
