All good, got everything working. No need to make reply's here anymore.

Ok, question.
I have a Rar file called EvolutionX_beta_V1.8.3285
Now when I open it, it's all the file and not a ISO.
I need it on a CD so I can use it in my DVDrom drive to load it up on my newley modded system.

Should I just simply burn the files to disc? Or is there anything special I need to do?

search for a tutorial on xIso... that should get you started... or any tut on burning a boot disc

You need to make it into an ISO using xISO
This is how I do it

Make a new folder on your desktop and name it DASHBOARD
Make another new folder on your desktop and name it DASH-ISO

Extract your dashboard to DASHBOARD
You will now have, in the folder DASHBOARD, the files needed to make an ISO

How to make an xISO

Open xISO
Click Tools
Click Make a xISO
Now browse to the folder DASHBOARD click OK
Now browse to the folder DASH-ISO and type Boot Disk in the File Name window click SAVE
It will now make an xISO about 3 > 4 Mb in size

Yep, already did all that.
I burned in Disc Juggler, but its not working.
Does it NEED to be burned using Xiso?
I get a ASPI error (WinXP), I installed the ASPI drivers, about to reboot and see.
But if I cant burn with Xiso, then what else is there that will make a good burn?

Ok, xiso sees my cd writter now, but it gives me some error in spanish when I click Burn.

not sure about DJ, I use Nero...

Flea420 · « **Reply #6 on:** February 19, 2003, 03:04:00 PM »

I just burned it in Nero 5.something, as it burns it says its a ISO 9660, is that right?
I'm about to pop it into the xbox.

Nope, that one didnt work either.
3 CD-r's down.

Xbox 1.0 or 1.1? 1.0 will NEVER read CD-R's, use CD-RW instead.

USE CDRW not CDR's

How to burn using NERO

Insert a blank CD-RW or DVD
Open up Nero
Click File > Burn Image
Direct it to your newly made ISO
Click Finalize CD
Write Speed 2X
Write Method Disc-At-Once
Click Write
It will now burn your image to disk

I am using my PCDVDRom drive though.
And my crappy cd writter wont even burn RW's.

SumDumGuy · « **Reply #10 on:** February 19, 2003, 03:07:00 PM »

CD-R's?!?!?! Doh... sorry man,,, I didnt think about that... like I had said to start... reading a Tut is your best bet... no matter, we are at the heart of the problem now...

This will only work with CD-RW's

Flea420 · « **Reply #11 on:** February 19, 2003, 03:10:00 PM »

Even though I am using the Evox disc in my PC dvdrom drive that can read cd-r's?

Biteable · « **Reply #12 on:** February 19, 2003, 03:12:00 PM »

Try TDK CDRW650's or 700's
Don't try any fast CDRW like TRAXDATA 10x speed. Even my CD writer wont do these

Biteable · « **Reply #13 on:** February 19, 2003, 03:13:00 PM »

Your PC shouldn't be able to read the disk if it is made properly

Flea420 · « **Reply #14 on:** February 19, 2003, 03:14:00 PM »

Ok, CD-RW's work, I got that.
I'll try and burn one with a friends system.

BUT, I read that a CD-R will work to as long as your booting it from a PCDVD rom drive, which is what I am doing. But no matter what cd-r's wont work? This correct?

Ok, i'll test the discs right now in my pc.
