Xbox memory cards aren't mapped in the BIOS. Basically its a memory device, but try to run anything off H:-O: and the BIOS won't do it.

To the BIOS, these "drives" don't even exist.

So then how does it load game saves? It must mount the memory card as a drive. Just like in XP.  I think it's really possible if you can save things to it then you can excute things from it.

It can still copy data to-from the drive fine.
The problem is when you go to run an executable the Xbox can't mount that drive for executable use. So, when you go to run anything off a memory card the Xbox will just crash out because it can't do any of this mounting to a memory card.

At least this is what I've come to know.

I could be wrong. If someone wants to fiddle with this go ahead. Lol, applications might load up hella slow.
