but you should easily be able to install xp/98 and install nero n use the bias tutorials......  Oh and I don't really think the burner matters, its more to do with the media  smile.gif

Could always buy a cheap $300 pc just for iso making  unsure.gif

Have you successfully used the cdrw media you are burning to in your xbox before? The drives are notoriously picky. You might get a different type and try it again.

I have a Mac at work, so I am going on memory here at home. Use WinXP. First have you made the file an xISO first? If not you will need Xiso for Mac. Check the main page under tools.

http://dwl.xbox-scen...osXboxISOv1.dmg

try this one, I think you can drag and drop your files over top of this app.

Once it makes the xISO, open Toast, go to file and choose create disk from image (or something like that) click burn and you should be set to go.

edit: make sure you choose disc-at-once/finalize

Hope that helps

Thanks for the reply.  i'm on a G5 so i can't use os9 as a startup, i can only use it in classic emulator.

anyway, i just bought a disc with the bios and slayer on it, and the guy said it will flash the chip so i'll give it a try when i receive it tomorrow.

i'll probably still be looking for another one again later though.  i'm not too optimistic about this disc coming.
