B) Yeah, you have to rename the .exe file to .xbe and then run it ont the Xbox.

God damn I wish it was that easy...

You forget something. First sign the .EXE with the audio-key from xbedump. This will make the audio compatible with the Xbox. Then rename it to .xbe. After that, sign it with the font-key to make text work on the Xbox. Then burn it on a blue-ray disc (at 29.64x... not at any other speed!). You will need an XCalibur-chip in your Xbox, but the Xbox must be a V1.0 or a V1.2. Also, the Xbox requires 192MB of memory.

[edit]
I forgot to tell that your Xbox needs the ATI GPU, not the one from Matrox.

Ignor all the other posts. Some people make the effort to post but just take the piss when they do. You obviously dont know so I will tell you. Its not as simple as just changing the name of the file. They whole game must be re-coded. Very very differcult work and can only be done if the source code for the game has been released.

Im sorry that some people here strive to be so unhelpful.

I've seen an emulator with an 'Import .EXE' executable, but I don't think the Xbox has GDI, so it wouldn't display properly.
