Is your xbox chipped, if it is there is a usually a ftp option in the dashboard so you can ftp in from windows, if its not chipped I'm not sure.

There both chipped but ftp prog dont connect do i use a standard net cable
the ip been set correctly

You'll need a cross over cable or a hub to connect them. They are only a few quid if you need one from most computer shops.

from memory the ip address set up can sometimes give problems try setting a fixed ip in the dashboard then make sure you use the same settings in flashfxp. and if straight from pc to xbox make sure it is a crossover cable and not a patch cable

DONE ALL OF THAT TALKS TO THE BOX JUST CANT COPY
WHAT ABOUT IF I TAKE OUT THE HDD AND DO A DRIVE COPY OR SOMETHING TO A BIGGER DRIVE?

you have to unlock the drive first in the xbox menu... then take it out.. connect it to the pc.. and you can copy the contents..
place it back and LOCK the drive again in the xbox menu..

let me clear that up for you:

First of all download the hdd unlocker here http://www.xbox-scene.com/tools/tool...page=harddrive

Then connect your original hdd to your xbox, using Evox, get your hdd password. (in the evolutionx dash go 'system utils' then 'backup' , this will make a directory called "backup" on the C drive of your xbox. "hddinfo.txt" will contain the HD key)
Once you have it, It looks like this:

01:23:45:67:89:AB:CD:EF
01:23:45:67:89:AB:CD:EF
01:23:45:67:00:00:00:00
00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00

rewrite it as followed:

0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF01234567

Yeah delete the last zeroes, and print it out, ull need it.

Now you have to boot DOS (Bootdisk).

go here
http://xbuck.free.fr/softs/wxpboot.exe for a bootdisk

Once downloaded execute it, enter a Floppy disk in ur computer.
it will make that disk a boot disk.

Then add the files: hdunlock.exe, hdunlock.pas, hddisabl.exe, and hdddisabl.pas to the bootdisk just created.

Now, turn off your computer, set your xbox hdd to SLAVE, install your xbox hdd in your computer.

Turn on your computer with bootdisk inserted, and it will ask you to press a key, then press a key, and you are in A:\>

Type in hdunlock and press enter
Select your xbox hdd, and enter your hdd password

it should say DONE

Type in hddisabl
Select oyur xbox hdd, and enter your xbox hdd password

it should say DONE.

Congratulations you have unlocked your xbox hdd for formatting and us e on the pc.
