If you look in the /c/ directory on your XBox (while your using the FTP software), you'll find a file called Menu.ini. This file is what builds the menu options that you see on the screen.
For each menu item, you'll might see a line like:
Item "<description shown in menu>","<location of xbe file>"
If you see this line, then and the item doesn't work, the problem is more than likely that you're <location of xbe file> is wrong. For example, if you have a game called Pong in your E:\Games\Pong directory, and the command to start it was default.xbe, you should have a line in your menu ini that looks like this:
Item "Pong","E:\Games\Pong\Default.xbe"
If you were to do something like
Item "Pong","C:\Games\Mygames\Pong\Pong.xbe"
it wouldn't work. It would just hang at the evox screen.
If you want to play Divx movies, do a search for XBMP on these forums. You'll find a link to the web site with tutorials on how to set it up. Once you get it running, it should play them just fine for you.
Adding and removing things to/from the hard drive is all done via an FTP program. If you have that much stuff on your hard drive already, then you've obviously played with the Menu.ini and ftp. There are plenty of tutorials for that type of stuff on this board. One thing I can recommend though, get the GUI Editor for menu.ini. It might save you some headaches.
