Again with the 360..

So, I am getting the 360 hooked up to my computer as we speak. I have a couple questions though..

1. Is it possible to move music from my computers harddrive to the 360s harddrive?
2. Is that the same for movies?
3. Can I play games off of my computer?


Thats all I can think of at the moment..any help would nice. Thanks.

Hooked up to your computer like using your computer's monitor? Or perhaps hooking both up to the same network?

You can move music from your computer to your xbox, burn a CD on your computer and put it in the 360 and rip it to the drive.

So, if I hook up a lan cable to both the xbox and my computer, will I be able to transfer music from hard drive to hard drive?

Also, I am having a hard time connecting it, for some odd reason I have to keep going threw these steps..I added all the info and everything...I must have tested the connection atleast 20 times.

No.

I am guessing its only for xbox live then huh? Do you have to pay for that ****?

Well, your music can't physically transfer over. If your Xbox and PC are on the same network, you can stream music and video onto your Xbox.

Are you hooking your Xbox up to a router or directly to your PC?

You have to pay for a Gold account. Silver is free, but you won't be able to play games online. I believe it will still let you stream music/video like I described above.

Directly to my PC...

Does that mean all games..even the ones I have bought and stuff?

You can still play your games, just not online with other people.

You might need a special crossover cable if you're connecting directly to your PC.

Either that or just connect both to a router/hub.

Ah, I have none of that..No high speed for me .

Umm..how about this..I can play music off of a flash drive while I play games..will I be able to move the music off the flash drive onto the hard drive of the xbox?

I just read that you can move it from a portable device..how would I go about doing this?

you can run your xbox thru your computer in a bridge connection type and play games online and use your computer as a custom lag switch ;) turn your firewall on LOW when play games then turn it on MEDIUM or HIGH to lag everyone else out and get unlimited kills for about a minute ;) hehehe

google how to bridge your xbox 360 ;)

Alright thanks..I'll be looking into that later tonight or tomorrow morning.

So, is there only one way to put music on the hard drive?

That way is only using a burned CD or a CD..I can't use anything else?

I believe that's the only way.

only works for about a minute then then the game will kick you, and it doesn't work for most games anymore.

Thanks for all the help guys. I ended up giving up trying to get the xbox and the computer connected. Just wasn't working. Read some interesting stuff on the bridge connection might be trying it tonight. Thanks
