So guys, i'm doubt again,
XBMC whas told to me to be the best dash.
I can believe that.
But i'm planning on putting my games to hdd.
I don't see any Games dir in this photo of the project mayhem.
Evo does, or do i have to put my games in the Applications dir?
If i cant copy my games to my hdd please tell me because then i will put evox anyway....
Thanks allot guys

Sounds cool, but i still don't know where to drop the game from disc to hdd.
So does it choose the drive automatically or do i have to choose for myself.
If so which drive would be best then?

use DVD2XBOX and i believe it will set it in E: drive but you install DVD2XBOX go to copy dvd and push start and it will take about 16 minutes to copy
EDIT:: thats if you didnt upgrade HDD if you did then it will ether go under F: or G: _________________ xbox AID 4.10 80GB WD

a folder format
if you have a larger hard drive you can place games in F or g and xbmc will pick them up

Yeah, don't go putting games on E:, otherwise you'll run out of space after one game. If you have an above normal size of HDD, games should be put in F: or G: as these partitions will have more space.
This leaves the E: drive free to install your apps etc.

ok, so using dvd2xbox i get 2 options to copy 1 = normal 2 = iso
I tried normal mode with my most wanted game and after 10 min or so it stopped and opened the dvd tray then i took out game and checked my F:/games folder where i had put it. nothing there????
If i use second option which is iso mode then it will actually copy to my hdd to the folder i gave it on F:/games but the icon is not the icon of the game but a standart controller icon, if i click it screen goes black couple of seconds then it just reboots my xbmc mc360 dash???

well on dvd2xbox use normal and go to the settings at menu and enable F: partitions then try it when you start to copy it will ask you where you want to save save in F: games if doesnt have a games make one and it should copy correctly cuz iso it wont read most the time unless it is on a DVD-R/W
BUT before you start this make sure you got a F drive and if there is a games for a folder if not make one _________________ xbox AID 4.10 80GB WD
