I have a softmodded (through mechwarr softmod) running UnleashX V0.38. When I try to use a CD-R to transfer ROMs to the box, the File Explorer (I assume this is supposed to act as the built in file manager) never shows any data in the D: drive (correct disc input drive???). I am already running emulators for several platforms and just need to begin uploading ROM games. Any help appreciated

Depending on what kind of drive you have, it may or may not agree with CD-R media. Try burning to a cd-rw. Ideally you'd like to just FTP into the xbox from the pc, because that will save you a lot of trouble down the road. Also on my xbox, cd-rw media works fine as long as its only been written to once. For whatever reason if I add on to it, it will only read the newer part of the disc. So give that a try.

If your putting the roms on the disk in data format it wont show, try using qwix 101 to pack the roms in to an X-ISO and they should show up for you.
If it keeps locking up during transfer check the rom title for illegal characters and for name length. _________________
I tried Qwix, I may not understand whats wrong but I can't get it to work. I found that I can use a DVD-R to add games and they will show up, when copying games I'm getting two main error messages, error codes 5 and 123, in UnleashX what do these mean?
as always help much appreciated

Do you get the error when it hits a ROM with a real long name or one with lots of strange characters? _________________
I might be wrong, but I think I remember having error 123 a lot transferring roms (I did over 4000 of em), and i think it had something to do with the filenames having illegal characters in them or being too long. I think commas in the filenames were a part of it, but i'm not sure anymore.

I have noticed that commas do not work, and there is a character limit, but there are still files that don't work for no reason I can find.
The error codes I get back are Error Code 5 and Error Code 123, some do not have a reason as to why the copy failed in the text message after.
ex Addams Family Values (U).smc will not copy, short, no commas, no illegal characters... no idea
