(sigh) If you had a disk, I would recommend using DVD2XBOX. Since you've decided to download games and ftp over to xbox, I suspect that the dashboard is not being updated in the ini file to reflect said games. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

youn need to either burn the ISO to a disk, or use a program like Qwix to extract the iso to the xbox

Ok cool, how do i update the dashboard ini file and what type of disc do I need ? Cause seeing as how the iso is over 2 gigs I assume it would not fit on a regular cd-r or cd-rw.
You must have a default.xbe as that is the main file that the xbox will look fo.
Then ftp the whole folder 'COMPLEXTOOLS' to your xbox e:\apps\
Stop!!!
I think AIDeluxe has COMPLEX TOOLS on it.. Why not download AID2 and just burn it to a DVD-R or CDRW and boot.. Then you can choose to install CXBOXTOOLS to your xbox hdd.. That it much easier..
Ill just go and double check it has CXBOXTOOL still in it.. Im sure it does..
Be right back.

AIDeluxe has COMPLEX TOOLS on it? No sh*t. Perhaps it's time for bed and enough margaritas for the night. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

Hmm ok I make a folder put the complex things in there (A media folder, default.xbe, ComplexTools document and Filezilla Server document.) I sent that to apps under E:\apps and whne i went to it on my box it froze :/ About the AID should I just delete all this burn it to a disc and then run it?

it will be much easier to let the AID install it for you.
Download the AID2 and burn to DVD-r (if you have it)
Then just choose to install it as a application!
You should be ready to rock and roll then!
