Backing up your games using Qwix and Alcohol 120%- We at Smdepot.net don’t take responsibility if you burn illegal disc, you are to only back up the games you own and if you get caught burning illegal disc, well that’s your fault.

Things needed:
Modded Xbox
Qwix
Alcohol 120 (What I’m using for this tutorial), Nero, DVD Decrypter, or a Xiso program.
And be Ftp to your Xbox, Note: If you don’t know how to ftp, learn how or don’t try this.
DVD Burner
DVD-R Disc

Step 1: Start up your Xbox and go into the dashboard (evox, unleashx, etc) not the M$ dashboard. (I’m using Evox)

Step 2: When on the Evox dashboard open your disc tray up and put in your Xbox game and close it.

Step 3: Open up Qwix on your computer.

Step 4: On the left hand side of Qwix you will see a button that says “Create Iso”, click that.

Step 5: Hit the Ftp Folder and then hit the browse button (…)

Step 6:  You can either do two choices here; either copy the game directly from your DVD drive or from your hard drive.

If you are going to copy from your DVD drive then select the D drive folder and hit the OK button at the bottom. Select the game where your game folder is located and press the OK button at the bottom.
Note that Unleashx doesn’t show let the D drive show up in Qwix if you’re using this step.

If you are copying from your Xbox hard drive then browse and go to your games folder, mine is the E drive. Note that Unleashx doesn’t show let the D drive show up in Qwix if you’re using this step.

Step 7: There is a box with Auto Cross link next to it, check the box off and then click create iso.

Step 8:  I suggest here that you go create a new folder on your desktop or somewhere like my documents and name it the name of the game. On step 7 after hitting create iso you can locate it to this folder and save it and make sure it is in .iso format.

Step 9: After it is done click ok.

Step 10: Now go to Alcohol 120 and open it up.

Step 11: After opening Alcohol 120% up, open up your game folder and drag the .iso file into the top white box.

Step 12: In Alcohol 120% highlight the file and then on the left hand side click the Image Burning Wizard, note it’s the second icon down.

Step 13: In the top make sure your file is there, if not click browse and find your game and then double click it. Hit the next button at the bottom.

Step 14: At this time I would pop in the DVD-R into my DVD burner.

Step 15: You can change the write speed if you want; I prefer putting mine at 3.0X, check off the box that is next to “Write” if it isn’t already. You should be able to leave everything else alone and then you can press the start button. Note: The time it takes depends on the speed you picked, the game size, and the computer you’re using.

Step 16: Wait for it to finish and usually your DVD drive pops open, now you can play your back up game on your Xbox.

infamous were u the one who put no on the poll?

I dont burn to discs. It costs money to hav discs :) . I use c-xbox tool. it good

haha its only like 25 bucks for 50 disc and u can sometimes fit 2-4 games on one disc

or if u like me you could just get them for  free from WALMART if u no what i mean

haha stealing isnt good for ur health either

I got arested last wednsday for stealing :(

yup. anyway, i like to backup games! not on discs thou'. dont ya need dat blank data?

well when im doing the step with the d folder it says "d is not a valid remote folder" what do i do?

is there a disc init? make shure in file explorer

i dont know what ur saying lol do you have a yahoo?

get unleash. go into file explorer, go into D:\ , and make shure you can see the disc. i dont have yahhoo

well if i make a iso for each of the files can i burn it like that?

you copy all the files from the D:\ drive to your pc and make an xiso of it

well i tried to do that and i did last night... and when the disc was done burning i tried it out and it kept reading unknown disc... so what should i do about this?

you have  to make an xiso

i think i did lol i followed every step in the tut

well. then the xbox cant recognise the disc. u hafta get a disc that will definatly work in your xbox.

like what ? i have a phillips drive if that helps

WHOA this tutorial is cool 8)

Ok I'm frustrated! I've done everything in this tut almost exactly multiple times....
With qwix it wouldn't let me do the ftp option so i just ftp the /D drive over to my pc and then used qwix to patch it an then an .iso. Then at first I was using Nero and after several failed attempts i dl alchohol120% and followed the tut exactly for it and still the same problem every time....

When im all done I put the back up in and it reads it as the right game but when i "launch dvd" it just stays at the loading screen 4ever.

I've tried multiple games, multiple burning speeds, nero and alchohol120%, I made an .iso with craxation, I cleared all my cache files..... there is something that i must be doing wrong.... what is it?
I'm using DVD-Rs... Ive even tried different computer burners, softwares and tried using the backups on different modded xbox's. So it's something in the process, probly some small mistake. (unleash is my dash so no IGR option to turn off)

What is it, PLZ any help is appreciated. This tut seems so easy and yet i manage not to be able to do it.

it think its the disc, get some reely high quality one and if that dont work then its something else.

what do you mean by quality? umm the disks ive been using are dvd-r 120min/4.7gb 16x/1x sony...... i have some other packs i'll try real quick... and umm i just read this post where Snafupossum was talking about making sure the .xbe in the route of the disc though looking in the file exploer. what does he mean by that? In my file explorer when I open up the /D the default.xbe is there along with other files/folders.... still confused about what he is refering to.

hes just saying that there shud be a default xbe in there but you got it there so it shudnt matter

still didn't get it to work.... Maybe life just hates me
