    Do I just ftp the whole iso? If so where do I place it, something like under e:\emulators? Sorry complete noob here...

    Burn it, don't FTP the iso unless you extract from it first using something like isobuster.

    or unless you have a softmodded xbox and just mount/'attach' the iso.

    or u could just burn the iso usind "dvd decrypter" then pop the disc in ur xbox and copy the files from the dvd into the proprer directorys ie. e\emulators..

    but ftp is ur best bet just mount the iso on ur pc with "damon tools"

    If the iso's are called 'Big Ass Emulator' all you need to do is burn them to dvd.
    Pop them in the xbox and they should work like a dvd.

    You are advised to use an ISO, because of the filesystem limitations of FATX (Filename length, directory structure limits)
    Copying to the harddisk is a waste of time and will end in tears wrt BAED.

    As advised I just burned the iso images onto dvd/cd and poped them in the xbox and up they came! Thanks for the pointers.
