When you boot up the xbox hold down the white button to get to your X3 config screen.

With the AID disk i would do a fresh start with the one click install and use XBMC as a dash.
Once you have that going you can add any of the Apps from the AID disk and i wold add dvdx 2.0, dvd dongle free, dvd2xbox and what ever you think you eill use.
I think you will find XBMC will keep you playing around for hours with all the features.

i have tried to use just the aid iso untuched just burned to disk ver 4.2,.4.3
tried to update aid iso with updater and burn saved iso is there a certian way i should use the aid iso updater and select certian files (rar) to add ?
all i do is unzip the aid4.rar file i use winrar it makes the folder i then have tried the above with what is the the new folder
current setup
xcuter3ce
80gb hd now formatted with the slayers 2.7 booted to the the dash (blackbolt_s)

If you can get in to the file manager or FTP it you might need to clear out the E/cache folder.
