Right at this very moment i am very chuffed with myself. Within roughly 2 hours lastnight i went from knowing nothing about firmware modding and backups to modding my 360 100% successfully! Heres what i have / done!

Modded my Hitachi 47 Drive.
Used hotswap method and made a backup of Test Drive Unlimited (many errors along the way but it still worked)
Burnt the backup with clonecd

Hey presto! It works!!

The burner i have used is a NEC 3500AG thought this was worth a mention as i seen in many places people saying NEC drives do NOT work! What aload of crap, way i see it is if your burner supports dvd-rom bookype then its good to go!

Oh yea i also used cheap-ish Mirror DVD_R DL discs... Cost me £1 each!


Big thanks to the authors of the software, people that asked questions in here, and those who gave the excellent answers"!!!
