Xbox 360 DVD Mod
« on: August 29, 2009, 10:43:13 PM »
Hey guys, I'm new to the 360 scene (bought my box today) and have been reading about modding it to play backups. I basically understand that you need to mod the DVD Drive in some fashion, but am not sure where to start. If at all possible, I would like AVOID cracking it open (but I'm pretty sure you have to). I just got one of the Elite's (yay for price drop to $299!)

First off:
Welcome to Acidmods!!
Second:
40_Ounce, please stop linking new comers to other forums, and if you do, make sure it is actually specific. not"go look in the library", he is asking for direct help
Third:
this might be a little helpful :

Also, you MUST open your xbox to flash the drive to play backups.

Also(again), read my post in this thread:

Thanks for the help you guys, but I decided to return my Xbox as I didn't realize you had to open it...I thought there were mods you could do without opening it.
