I have like a 6gb game that i want to copy. I only have 4gb free on my hd. (Its a stock, and i don't want to buy a new one) I cant delete anything on it, so i cant copy it to my hd, duhh. But when i try to connect my xbox to my pc when my xbox is at the evox dashboard, it just wont connect. However, at the mod chip screen (when I first turn it on) i can connect, but i cant view the files on the dvd, only my drive E:I have tried several different FTP programs, so thats not the problem. I have also tried using a program to get the files off the dvd but that doesn't work either. Is there anything i can do to transfer it to my pc? Thanks

Sounds like a network problem. You going through crossover cable or through a router? _________________

no network problem, cos the chip can connect fine.
What network settings are you using in the evox dash?
what network settings are you using in the chip os?

chip os settings are- Use dynamic IP. The rest are jut my ip and dns. For the evox network settings: Setup Network-Yes, Use static IP-Yes, DNS-0.0.0.0 Setup delay-0. Is this enough info? I will try installing another dash, maybe unleash. Thanks for the help

I installed Unleash and i tried to FTP, but i was unable to connect. On the dashboard it detects everything, and says that my xbox is connected, but it wont connect. I use an ethernet cord with a modem/router.

Wait, since the game is about 6gb, how am i going to burn it to a dvd? My xbox dvd drive doesnt read dl. Is there a way to shrink the files/folders and then make an iso?

I tried a long time ago burning a game on a dl, and my xbox didn't read it, so i assumed my xbox won't read my dl discs. But i will try again. Maybe my xbox dvd drive just doesn't read memorex dl discs.
