    Guys,
    I´ve got the answer,I thought to put the xbox dvd drive into my pc since it reads xbox games.The pc tried to read dvds and it worked,THE PC TRIED TO READ THE XBOX GAMES AND IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    But u need a program,the problem is that it doesn´t show it´s name and i don´t find its files too.With that pogram u make your pc recognize the drive so that the game files can be accesible.

    What program are you talking about that lets your PC recognize the Xbox drive?

    Well that´s the problem the icon is invisible.It doesn´t show the name and i checked everything,but the problem is how i got it on my computer,cause i didn´t downloaded it.It simply appeared as a space between 2 icons in the start->all programs and it can´t be copied.It doesn´t have any option at all.I simply put my xbox drive in the pc and it started from itself.It asked:CONVERT XBOX DVD DRIVE TO COMPUTER DVD DRIVE?and i said yes and voila.That´s it maybe it´s from the drive.It did itself.I have an Samsung dvd drive.Hope it works with others.

    Which Drive?from the xbox or from the Pc.The one from the xbox has some screws around it.I think u need a special screwdriver.The one from the pc has the same screwdrivers.I don´t know how your pc is,but I hope it´s like mine.I hope it helped.

    thanks, but i meant to say, how do you open the drive's tray to put the disc in? do you just unplug the ata cable from the xbox and plug in the one from the computer and open it with the button on the xbox?

    that answers the question, since the only button to open the tray is on the xbox itself. but i have another question; how do you power the drive? it has that special power connector thing.

    nope.
    connect the cables to the Xbox DRIVE with the cables u used to connect your pc drive.It´s exactly the same.It´s like replacing the pc drive with another.

    hmm its just as easy to connect to a pc to your xbox than swap around xbox dvd drives and have a lumpy xbox tray sticking outta your pc
    youre saying you had an invisible icon, of a program you dont remember, that let your pc see an xbox drive?
    hmmmmm, some good info for everyone there lol

    That's an old guide and has been made easier with craxtion. It still has nothing to do with loading an xbox original game into your pc dvdrom. It is an ftp guide for retrieving the files from the xbox dvd rom and placing them in a folder on your pc to make an iso out of and then burning to a disk.
