You need to flash the bios, then you can play backed up games. As far as i know the X3 is the only chip that does not require a dash. Oh and i highly suggest you using the tutorials/guides up in the top right had corner to get questions such as these. Or use the the search option on the left.

Please research your question before asking

Here we go again! Ok im sorry but this is pissing me off, you ask a question and we told you exactly what and how your supposed to do this. On PC, executable are displayed by the extension of .exe on the xbox they are displayed by .xbe! There is a program but its only for Linux. At this point XBOX games/media can NOT be read on PC's

Um k, how is it stupid, why is it that the only pc dvd drive that people use in there xbox is the samsung616? Its the firmware on each of the drives thats not allowing it to read. To have this bypassed you have to either flash the firmware or write a program to convert the unreadable xbe's to a readable exe.

mod chip
bios, and the chip doesn't come with it you have to find it, Try a google search for xbins
you don't need a hdd, you don't need anything else to play backups.
and please SEARCH before you post question like this.
If you think im being rude just wait till some of the others see questions like this.

PLEASE SEARCH FIRST!

You cant burn games... that is illegal. No renting... no downloading :)

ONLY BURN BACKUPS. This is not the place to ask about piracy.

please... before you get really flamed, goto www.xbox-scene.com and read the tutorials...

here is what this smacktard needs.
1. x3 chip
2. new hdd (try a 200 gb)
3. Follow all the tutorials on how to get it all to work
4. you need a dashboard
5. you need dvd2xbox
6. you need to learn to freakin read what people are telling you

bottom line is you cannot burn xbox games on your pc. period. you can however copy xbox games to your xbox hdd using dvd2xbox. then you can play backups. i have more patience then some but if you make another stupid comment about burning xbox games with your pc then you need to be banned.

he doesnt have to have a new HDD does he?

just install X3

then you can do what everyone has told you to do

you transfer the game from your xbox to your pc over ethernet, then burn it to dvd. A normal dvd drive cant read the discs, you have to use the xbox drive to read them.

understand?
