You can try making a folder in the E or F drive and transfer the emulators to there.

I did, but on the main menu where you choose 'Self Installed Emulators' there is no sign of any of them.

Hi
firstly i assume your using evox from the
"self installed emulators" text.
If this is so you need to ftp into your xbox and transfer over the evox.ini and examine where it points to your emulators.
For example it might point to say
autoadd item E:/apps/emulators
or it might just be E:/emulators
or F:/apps/emulators, F:/emulators
So for example if its the first one you must put the folder containg all emulator data in its own folder in the emulators folder like so each emulator has its own "root" folder
E:/apps/emulators/(emulators containing folder)
which in your case would read say
E:/apps/emulators/snes
Now in the for example snes folder you must have all the emulators game data and the emulators own default.xbe and possibly even a folder enitiled "roms" where you put your chosen rom files but some emulators have the roms files loose not contained within their own folder.
With all that you "should" now see all the emulatoryou added listed in the self installed emulators sub menu after you press the "A" button.
Regards

This might sound stupid but when you have ftp them over restart your xbox and they might be there if you did it correct in the first place. When i ftp'd my emulators i didnt reset and they wasnt there, when i reset they were there.

Scotsmen, the evox ini file points to f:/apps/emulators. When I put them in that folder they never showed up. I did a little browsing and noticed that the 'E' also had a e/apps/emulators directory. I tried to put them there and it worked.
I appriciate everyones help

Hi
Sadly this forum is NOT the place to request roms.
As for the emulators themself thats easy try a "search" in googlefor "emulators for xbox" and it will throw up a shed load of hits.

You can't just copy the default.xbe, every default.xbe is different. That file is the boot file and is designed specifically for a game or emulator. If you downloaded an emulator without that file, it's probably for PC then, not Xbox.
I have a question of my own. Anyone has Quake 2X running on Xbox? I have no idea how to install this. I have a folder containing:
-baseq2
-audio (.bin)
-default_devkit.xbe
-default_retail.xbe
Do I need the PC image of Quake 2 installed somewhere on Xbox? Thanks.
