Ok the person only has a partial file so he didnt need to re ftp everything it wouldnt work if he ran out of space anyway so you take off a couple maps get the files that run halo 2 test it then add maps dont add maps then the menu files because there will be no room. also if you just buy a harddrive you have to lock it after you put the soft mod on it then put the hd into the box. and you can now rent games put them on your pc ftp a new game file into your box and get free games also you completely ignored jackos question "i have stock hdd, what if i want to mod single player maps, only one at a time due to space, so if i want to mod say cario station, what is the minimum amount of maps i should have?" my suggestion to him is put it on. check your space the fill it up with maps until you run out of room and your done. Also after you soft mod i would find XBMC and put it on cause it will let you access youtube, weather, and music all from the xbox.

Alright the guy had a partial file that ran Halo 2. He only needs the running files first so he knows he has enough room then add maps and test. but if he wants to mod campaign then only put one map on at a time. But if he wants a full halo 2 version on his xbox he needs a new hard drive a minumum of 50 gigs. A stock hard drive is around 20 give or take 5 it also depends on how old it is what version and so on. but instead of using evo x I would put on XBMC XBox Media Center which allows the user (if they are connected to the internet) to access weather, youtube, and your music library from your pc.

When your on live Microsofts bot does a simple scan looking for a folder in D:\ called TData and incidentely when you rip Halo 2 to your HDD you save it in C:\ so nothings in D:\ and the bot goes "Nothings here im gonna be an *** and ban him from live", but if you want to play with people for free use XBC or if you are persistant you'll find a mask that says your data is on D:\ when its really on C:\ thus making the bot be like "Dude hes using a Disc he's cool im gonna let him play his *** off on live" so you've just beaten the system and you feel like a good hacker now lets steal identities and get loads of cash

also *** is a(s) x2

Yeah, in the 'E' folder there is not a file that says 'Games'... just 'Udata', 'Tdata, 'Cache', 'backup', 'evoxdash.xbe', and 'config.xml'...... what gives?

*In Chinese accent* OOOOOOOOOOOH!

Wait, If I do make the folder, where am i going to find it? On my Dash, there is something that says, "Games" but is that it? And what about the file that you said is in there called "putgameshere"?

Oh wait, NVM, its just me being stupid again! It worked! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!! (not that sensitive toucy, feely stuff but the THANK YOU ALL kinda stuff )

Oh, and one last thing, when I mod the maps, do I 1. mod the maps in my 'Games" folder or do I 2. mod the maps in my PC harddrive and put them in my game folder? (if its #2 then do I rename the map so that it won't replace the normal one?)
