    download and install the application "hdd loader v 1.1" on the xbox. It copies most games in about 10 mins.

    you said you load the game from the "Games" menu??? that's weird, cause i load mine after i go into the hdd loader app.

    you should try some other games and see if they work, if they do then maybe you need to patch fifa and if they don't then i'm as lost as you.

    If all your games are on f:\games then I would do this either with box explorer of ftp either way it will work.

    Make a folder (exampler fifa2002) whatever.
    use boxexplore or ftp all the files from the cd to that folder.
    Then upload that folder from your pc if you used ftp, if you used box explorer the files should already be there. f:\games\fifa2002.
    Reboot xbox.

    It should allow you to pick and play it. Hope that helps.

    Where can I download xboxcopy at? Or any other compiled app that will copy games straight from the DVD-ROM to to HDD?

    I had the same problem with one game Worm3d. Come to find out the game was in pal region. Maybe you have put your xbox in Pal region.

    hey i've had some of the same problems you have with not getting games to load after they are on the hard drive. some people told me to update the bios to a bios that will take care of those protected games. I tried that and it still didn't work. so i got a newer version of the evolution-x menu and everything works like a charm. good luck to ya.
