Cleaning Up Folders On My Xbox
« on: August 20, 2008, 08:13:00 PM »

~ 60G hard drive ~ Avalaunch ~ X3 Chip ~
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello. Please pardon the long post. Explanation of my problem:

My brother owned this xbox before me. He has several games that for various reasons I am unable to back up and would prefer to keep on the xbox hard drive, which leaves "fresh install/reformat" out of the question. Also in the course of him owning it, he has installed several dashes (including AVALAUNCH which is my main at the moment) but failed to delete the previous ones and their folders. I have a lot of crap to clean out and I need some help determining what I can/cannot delete safely. I'm positive that the xbox reads the dash from E: drive.

My question to you is which folders are absolutely ESSENTIAL to the xbox and AVA to keep it working? Anyone with extensive knowledge about AVA and X3 bios and built-in X3dash info is welcome to help me.

Please tell me what I can/cannot delete safely. Also where are my save games located?

I have several things on each drive including:

If you need to see a little further in the folders, I have a directory tree I can post for you.

Z is scratch partition. E:\UDATA is where gamesaves are kept. Can't help for Avalaunch as I don't use it.

Thanks that kind of helped a little bit. Still want to know if I can get rid of some of these files safely. I've deleted some of them (the obvious ones) still stuck on a lot of them though.
