What game and where did you install to?

I havent had any slowdown in the titles ive ripped.

I tried it with Borderlands. Like I said, it starts fine and plays for about 10 mins perfectly. Then at this point it starts to lag and slow down really bad. However if I turn the xbox off and then on immediately and then load the game again, I can play for another 10 mins roughly. This is what makes me think it has something to do with a memory leak or something similar, which would explain why it always takes roughly the same amount of time to lag with the same game. Also it doesn't matter where in the game you are, just always after about 10 mins.

Thanks for any insight...anything I can contribute I will!

Wow guys

Apparently I need to get my ass back into the scene.

I did a lot with the old xbox, but short of flashing my drive witht he 360 i didn't do a whole lot more.

Sadly I took the dash update in summer 09

so I'm SOL untill we find a way to back step that little update

which I'm sure one of the fine people on the ball will do eventually.

But just the thought of being able to upgrade my hdd, and play games off of it without the disc in the drive is awesome!

Come on xbox360 Media center

M$ pathetically tried and blew it. lets get something with real balls.

the 360 in theory should have the guts to stream 1080 mkv files over the net.. but for somereason I get glitches just streaming pumped up 720p xvid.

Guess I will be checkin the forums a little more often!

Hello

from USB it slows down.. BUT PLAYING FROM INTERNAL HDD IS FINE !!

Is it possible to simply build in a 500gb 2.5 HDD ?
Do I have to format it and make partitions on PC or do I only need to format the HDD with the hacked dashboard??

After patching the game with x360gamehack (only selected make devkit) the games do not slow down

I would imagine it's a spindown issue with the external? hdparm might be a good program.

It's definitely not harddrive related as I can tell when its using the hard drive or if it is idleing and it is constantly spinning happily. I ripped the disc to an external 2.5hdd hooked up on the front usb port. I patched the xex with xextool 5.2, which from what I am reading appears to be the problem. I will try using the x360gamehack only selecting make dev for the xex and report back.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Just backed up Fable 2 and then patched the game using X360GameHack and it freezes after about 1 second. What could be causing this, a bad backup? I also renamed the directory from "backup0" to "fable 2".

Also Amazing Advances lately, I have to just say Thanks to all involved.

I got it to work now, At first I messed with the default options in X360GameHack. I then reran X360Game hack with the default options and it works now.

The release notes for XBRebooter .05 rev 1 says

QUOTE

Don't need xextool:
automatically detect correct key for dev or retail xex.

. Why is then we have to patch these games with xextool or XgameHack?

Yeah, that's what I've been trying to make clear through all my testing. Running it from the 360's HDD seems to eliminate the bottleneck. And yes you can swap out the hard drive with any 2.5", and it will format properly using the xbox. However, you won't be able to use any current PC-based tools (Xplorer360, Xport360, etc.). If the XeXLoader file management is good enough for you (expect updates in the future), then that is the best option.

Slowdown here also with Borderlands possibly due to me using a very old IDE HDD, purchasing a 500gb today. what rpm are the stock HDDs 5400 or 7200?

Is there any way to restore the unofficial memory cards like the datel card? I tried mine with XBreboot and the 360 still wont recognize it. Can i 0 out the revocation list or patch it from my 7xxx nand back up to restore the memory card? I know i can use USB but i would like to get some use out of this thing.

Well it appears using x360gamehack was what the problem was. I patched borderlands using that tool instead with all the default options and was able to run it without any slowdowns

On another note, when patching L4D2, the screen just comes up with black and purple checkers, and never starts the game. Anyone else tried L4D2 yet?
