i got it at a fair price and it does work. but all i know is that it is running some operating system called ms dashboard. it has a few different applications like the media center and media player. no emulators yet...

but first things first. how do i connect it to my computer to transfer files? (please go easy on me). no i dont know what kind of chip. i asked. he didn't know. but it does have 80gb wd caviar hard drive installed i know that.

so anyway. how do i connect the modded xbox with the ms dashboard interface to my computer? anybody.

For transferring the files? There's a wonderful thing called a USB thumb drive

regular xbox not a 360. does not have usb. i'll check it out though incase there's something you know about that. but regular xbox has no usb.

trying to ftp back and forth

the controller ports are a non standard USB interface.

you can get usb through a different cable, or you can make one by butchering a controller cord.

If you have the MS Dashboard (the standard one) then FTP might be a bit of a trick, but if you can boot up an alternate dashboard (EvoX, XBMC for example) then you can get the FTP network settings from there. Check out the xbox scene (I won't direct link) in google and you will find more information about getting FTP access from there.
