gavin19 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I don't like those AID discs they are mainly antiquated. AID 4.40 was only released 2 months ago. See here. For ease of installation, and given that the guy has been having trouble, including moving/renaming files incorrectly, then this all-in-one installer is the easiest/best option for him.

Emu Newbie Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 I used AID v4.4 and was able to get it to work. Interestingly enough, I was only able to get the xbox to read the iso burnt onto a CD-RW, and not a DVD+R, that I tried earlier. Now that I have xbmc in my E drive and running as the primary dashboard, couldn't I go and remove it from the applications folder (to save some hdd space)?

Bobdrakke Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Not all xboxes can read plus use - or booktype to rom. Yeah you can remove it from apps. I normally keep 2 builds one stable to how I like (dash) and newbuilds to fix plugin issues (apps) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu Newbie Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 I've got a question about auto-run. I have a BAED disk, that I no longer use to emulate (i just use it to host the roms - I installed the emulators on my hdd). If the disk is in my console, my console will boot up the disk, instead of xbmc. I've gone into the settings for XBMC and turned off every auto-run feature (dvd, game, etc.), but the disc still auto-runs if it is in the disk drive when I power up the console. Is there something else I can do to stop the BAED disk from auto-running upon start-up? Thanks Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobdrakke Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Its suppose to that if you have hdd problem or can't get to boot your dash you can get ftp acces via disk and fix problems. The only way you may get to modify this is by having a modchip but I don't know to much on this try xbox-scene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cba.gy Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 i believe the primary boot for an xbox is the rom drive, then if no bootable media is found it then defaults to the hdd, i use a modchip and softmods on another machine and if i leave a disk in then thats what boots. There may be ways or options but ive never looked into it. Even easier take the disc out after playing and put it away proper n safe then voila, problem solved !

fumanchu Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 well you just turn off auto-run game from dvd drive anyway if it dosent work for whatever reason then all you have to do is fire up which emu you are using on your hdd,then once the emu boots up put the baed disc in and voila jobs a goodun.if you have a disc in your drive and you turn it on and it dosent matter if its chipped or softmodded it will always load up that media because even if autorun game is turned off then it has to load up xbmc first for it realise not to run the game.in other words the xbox always checks the drive first.

Emu Newbie Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 Yea, I guess I'll just hit the eject button to turn my xbox on and then shut it after xbmc dashboard has opened. I was just wondering - just so that I could be even more lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fumanchu Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 baed is less than 4gigs couldnt you just burn the roms form whichever emu you use on baed to your hdd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emu Newbie Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 Or maybe I could just make a DVD data disk that wouldn't autorun (it could just hold the roms). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cba.gy Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 now yopur thinking outside the box, well done. Also if you structure your disk with folders for each emulator you could put all you favourite roms on one disk that would load for multiple different emulators / systems.
