    I keep seeing that everywhere...I'm just not sure why I would want to. I mean, I am going to burn it to DVD to have a permanent copy anyway...

    Alcohol 120% to burn the ISO?

    One more question: I have no choices on the burn type (DVD DAO only), and 2 speed choices: Maximum or 6.1X

    Which should I choose? Are XBox ISOs supposed to be burned slow as well?

    Eh..nevermind. I just left all defaults, and it is burning at 8X

    I got the details worked out now.

    Using DVD Decrypter, I burned Vietcong: Purple Haze...works perfectly.

    Only lost 2 DVD's in the process, not too shabby (damn Alcohol & Nero)

    EDIT: I was unaware this also enabled DVD playback. Bonus

    Question: can I change the Evox skin without all this FTP'ing stuff? I don't think it is important enough to pull all my network wiring out just to transfer a skin of Kasumi...

    I was thinking I could put it on the memory card, and transfer it that way?

    mmm,nop there are other skins in your dashboard i think theres other 2,just click in the skins option,as for the memory card i havent tried to transfer normal files like that using it but i supose you cant since it only accepts save files,i suggest the ftp, is very easy and i can help you here if you want

    edit-i remembered a way to have more skins but youll need the autoinstaller 2.6 it installs various aplications to your xbox including more skins ,but becareful since the autoinstaller will not let you use your ms dashboard again until you format your hd with the same disk to retail

    edit2-this is another idea i have ,since your xbox can read unsigned code now theres a posibility that if you burn your skins to a cd or dvd dot know if the cd will work though,and then after that just insert it in your xbox and browse the d drive,after that just pull the skins to your skin folder

    That is more like what I was thinking. I was looking for something like Windows Explorer for the Xbox, then I can browse the CD and copy/paste.

    you can,turn your xbox on but with the tray open,then when the deluxe window appears go to the file manager option,in there youll see all the folders and files your xbox has,also youll see all your drives etc,in there just go to the d drive and do what i said before ,then choose the files you want to copy by pressing the white button i think then select the option of select all,then copy them to your skins folder it should be in your c drive.

    yea,that comes with the autoinstaller to,windows media center,media player and other things,but i had a problem with the autoinstaller,it wouldnt let me use the ms dashboard again until i gave format to my hd to retail mode and then i installed the soft mod again,so thats why i dont use the autoinstaller,i prefer to transfer my apps manually,as for the boxexplorer it looks like the file manager but with a diferent skin,didnt used it to much since i thought it was the same but in a more presentable form.

    So as I stand right now, with only the Softmod, do I have a way to browse a CD and copy files?

    yea,as i told before,turn your xbox on with the tray open and select the file manager thing,after that just go to the d: folder and browse it, there you can see the contents of the cd
