    Why not just buy yourself a new hard drive, from some online retailer... and then download yourself an Auto Installer Disc (you can find one on TheReturn's page, or by searching google for SLAYERS Auto Installer)


    Slayers or other auto installers will install all the software needed on your new larger HD.

    Then you can download yourself Emulator Files and roms from one of the many bit-torrent sites available.

    This will save you money, and maybe even save yourself from being frauded.

    Sites that offer products with loaded games and software that is not legal are risky to deal with.

    Good stuff, this will save you money and you will have more control over exactly what you get on your new hard drive.

    If you have anymore questions do not hesitate to PM me or post again.

    Have an excellent evening.

    im pretty sure Xbox-Hq Auto-Installer Deluxe v3.0 does have support for this. What i want to know is if it is possible just to swap the hard drives in your xbox and place the autoinstaller disk into your xbox when booting it up. e.g.no need to use a computer to ftp files etc.

    Slayers is old and out of date I highly do not recommend using it. What I do recommend is AID 3.

    Slayers is older, but it does have support for >137GB drives I use it all the time to setup 250 - 500GB drives...


    It also depends on the BIOS you have installed on your chip, if its really old it might not support >137GB but you'd have to have a super old bios for that to be the case.

    http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/postt13233.html grab AID 3.0 there

    you simply open the xbox drive, place the disk in, turn off, turn on, then it should boot assuming that our box is modded. and thats that.
