For some reason putting games on the F drive dosent work out to well try to ftp the game to E:Games and reboot your xbox it should work that way. Another reason is maybe you got a bad copy. What game is it you are trying to put on your hard drive?

You need to get quick par (if it has par2 files), this will verify them all and repair broken .rars
Once that is done, you open the main rar file, usually it will be .001 or .01, or .rar. (if they are all .rar, its the last one in your file list). this should give you the iso after you extract it and then i suppose you ftp it over. I use Quix but i'm running avalaunch. I don't use bit torrent, but this is how you would go about accomplishing what you are trying to do.
I cover my bases...
1)Xbox w/xecuter 2.6 solderless
2)Ps2 (slim) w/DMS4 Lite
3)Ps2 V7 w/DMS4 Lite and 200 Gig Maxtor HDD
4)GC w/qoob pro

Well, if you want to get techincal about it, everything on these forums just about is illegal in one form or another. Isn't downloading ROMs and Emulators a form of piracy? What about homebrewed software that allows you to backup games to the hard drive, or to even play DVDs without having to purchase the DVD Software from Microsoft? Isn't that ALL forms of piracy in one way or another? So why are you tripping over this?

So what you're saying is because you shared your files illegally with others it makes it ok for you to illegally download their games.......lol
I must remember that one for when the ol' bill come knocking at my door :-)

And STILL the mods havent got to this one??
What a muppet..he's trying to play a linked rar archive, wouldn't be surprised if he hasn't ftp'd the .torrent file with the rest..give me strength!!!
And WHO is spouting that BS about games not working too well off F:\??? My 290GB F:\ partition doesn't have any trouble at all even though there's only 7GB free left. Stop spouting *edit* crap and go learn something..*edit* Or is it clever these days to talk utter, total and complete garbage..maybe I'm missing something here?...
Piracy, flaming, false info and BS... Thats about all there is in here..
Byeeee..
Go on ..tell me I don't know what I'm talking about
I'm bored..
In the header section of this file, there is a 4 byte "size" member, which specifies the size of the file including itself. The dashboard first reads the header, subtracts the length of the header from this size, allocates to fit a file of this size, and reads that number of bytes into the allocated block.
Because the size variable includes itself, values of 0, 1, 2 or 3 will cause an underflow condition when the size of the size variable itself is subtracted. the dashboard will then allocate only 0-3 bytes of memory and attempt to read several gig into it, overwriting large sections of memory...
Anybody got the faintest idea what that's about???

hey everybody! guess what! the rules do frickin' saythat you can help this guy figure out how to get his games working. what do you think we have all those Console Backup forums for? unless we're specifically told that this guy has no legit copy of the game, it's common human courtesy to assume he does. it's "innocent until proven guilty," not the other way around.

Actually theres an interesting point about p2p files that maybe some people aren't aware of.. Yes you ARE legally allowed to make a backup of YOUR software..The point being that a downloaded file though containing exactly the same software, by legal definition is a copy of SOMEBODY ELSES..unless of course you uploaded your backups onto a secure server and are retrieving them later ..WITH THE FULL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT AND PERMISSION OF THE OWNER AND PUBLISHER OF THE COPYRIGHTED WORK..read the box..it's on everything printed, it even includes photocopying the cover. Thats the whole p2p argument, and that's the weapon the MPAA and RIAA are using against the p2p file tracking sites.. I'm sure ireland can provide all the necessary transcripts of legal definitions for anybody who cares to look.
Anyway..the answer to this thread exists 1000 times over.. There's a thing called a f****** search button.
In closing.. Scamino1 if you had the original you would have probably said so, something like " I damaged my disk so I downloaded one off bittorrent. It doesn't work..can anybody tell me what to do with it??"
See...simple, quick and effective... Nothing personal but there are waaaaaayyy too many of these threads already.. Magic words. WinRar..ISO...BURN..

Actually now it's all calmed down I'll answer your question...
When you unpack the rar's and get the iso you need a program called "ExtractXiso GUI by Huge" Run the iso through that and it'll turn it into the same list of files you get if you ftp off the xbox. Just ftp that folder back to the box into E:\ or F:\ games..and there you go.
I was just arguing with the other idiots..not you.. It was a valid question. I normally just answer them but those other nutters just got me going. lol

if you put an iso file in xbox it wont work, only avtual game folders so yes you will have to restore it to original folders.

Wow, like cereal, I too am surprised that this didn't get closed by a mod. Now that the poster has finally requested it, it would most likely be in the better idea to have a mod close it, etc.
Questions of this nature really don't belong here, although realistically, when someone tells you how to use a program like that, they really should tell you what to do with the files anyways, it just makes good sense.
Although, it is because of attitudes like that of the person who posted this thread cause the deterioration of thread relativity and legality, making it necessary to have the rules here. They are generally the same people posting all over here, with questions like
"Hey d00dz wh3r3 c@n I get s0me illeg@l g@mez0rz0rz?"
Yeah, sorry about that. But I've seen that phrase appear on another board. It was really sad. I would think though, that before going to such a length as the methods they used to get the files, they would also make an effort to be sure they actually understand the files. It seems ridiculous not to.
