Hi, I'm new to this whole backup thing, but I've successfully burned a few working PS2 games (both CD and DVD).
I just wanted to know if burning games for the X-box is exactly the same process (i.e. image burning for CD-r, and direct copying for DVD-r)?
Also, are there any non-solder chips for the x-box like there are for PS2, as I am using the slide card + swap magic disks for PS2. Is there anything like that for xbox?
Thanks a lot for your help

Q) are there any non solder chips?

A) Yes

Q) swap magic

A) no

as a general guide (well actually an answer to the exact same topic name as this one, around 8 posts down) you will need

As a BRIEF rundown of what you will need - here is a short list of what you need to do. I urge you to check out seamonkeys guides (found at the top of the backing up page ie sticky topics) and the tutorials at www.xbox-scene.com so you can get some detailed information.

1 - you need a cross over cable for direct pc to xbox exchanges or a network setup.

2 - You need a new dash board for the xbox ie: Evox

3 - assign your xbox a static ip (in evox) which is in the same subnet as your computers

4 - Obtain a ftp program ie: Flash FXP

5 - create a new connection in Flash FXP - name - xbox password - xbox with you xbox's new ip address

6 - Open the connection between your comp and xbox
through flash fxp or similar

7 - Open xbox drive, place game in, close xbox drive

8 - Wait 'til its finished reading the disk and then open the D: folder on your xbox through flash fxp or similar

9 - Create a folder on your pc for the game to go.

10- open that folder and copy ALL game data (from the d drive) into the new folder you just created.

11- when its complete (transfers fron d: to pc with a cross over are normally 1.5 meg a sec) patch the .xbe files with a program called qwix availiable from www.xbox-sceen.com - tools

12 - Create an iso from your data with QWIX (or similar)

13 - Burn as image on media suitable for YOUR version xbox

14 - PLAY
