Ok You get the AR and copy the game saves to the mem card and then start the game and then choose the load game and bam the softmod starts right? So is this the game save I need for Mech game??
http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/download-file-274.html&title=MechInstaller-1.0%20FATX-Images

why wouldn't I use AID to setup the dash and suchs vs using the SID stuff? I mean once modded I can install all my dashes and files just like a chipped Xbox right? So if its backup (which just about any dash will do) whats the benfit of using one installer vs another??

For the 1st question.
You need a copy of SID 4.5, which is in the downloads section.

This will contain the saves for all 3 games. Plus an extra one which you have to inclue with which ever on you use called "nk.Launcher". Then just load up as told and install....

For the rest.
You can boot a copy of AID and install dashes like on a chipped xbox. Almost all the same features!

Hmm I don't have an DVD burner so what would be another way of getting the files (its a PITA because of apple) I have the game save for the mech game...but why do I need the SID4.5 disc? If I just got the files game save and the linx hack file and put them on the card. Then shouldn't I just be ok with that? For I would still need the game in 1st for the whole thing to work right? Then set the Evox as a dash (because of backup) and then unleash as an app for the file manger? But whjy couldn't I just install the EvoX and setup the FTP opition and then FTP to the box(just trying to get my head around the idea chips are far easyier I feel)??

Hey man SID 4.5 is not a disk it is the newest version of the game saves and the launcher. You will need to copy the game save for mech that comes with SID along with the launcher it also is in the SID download and the reason you use SID to install the dash is because it may not boot AID without a dash you will end up with the contact customer service screen. So I would just use it to install the dash and then use AID to change it to what ever you want. Hope this helps.

hMM...ok that what it is. Nice so as long as I have those files and tranfer them to the card...then I am in business. After that I know I can set anything up pass that point. Also the other thing my dash has to be in C drive with the .exe file name changed and I can't change it otherwise...I think I got it and when I get my setup...I will ether post Yeah or oh no I messed up another guys xbox...lol.
