i just bought an xbox 360 and it already had games installed on the hard drive which is 320 gig. the black ops on the hard drive tells me to insert the cd but the other games dont. am also on dashboard 2.8955.0(samthing like that) is it jtag or not. who can really explain this cause i dont get it?
Its gotta be JTAG or some kind of modchip(?). The fact that it will boot games off the HDD without a disc in the drive confirms this.

yeah your one lucky guy to have gotten a jtagged console without realising. It's hard enough to get an exploitable console, let alone do the jtag. That console is worth £200-300 pounds easily and they older they get the rare and more vaulable they are.

Plus to have a hard drive of 320gig it could only be a jtag. If it is, all you need to do is install NXE2GOD, run that and then black ops will work. You might already have it installed. _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

I'm 90% sure that there's a solution to upgrade jtagged consoles to the dashboard your on. The fact that games are booting without disc would say to me that the exploit is still working. I think that if you try and install nxe2god it should just work if it has been updated and isnt exloited anymore then in theory it just wont instal dont think it will do any bad. I don't have a jtagged console so I'm not totally sure of the ins and outs. The only thing I'm pretty sure about is that jtags will get banned really really quick after going online.
I would totally advise looking after this console and using it as it is and getting a 2nd console for online.
Jtag means it's completely homebrew compatible - you will be able to install things like snes emulators, cps3 arcade emulators, homebreww apps, media centres. It makes the console almost like a pc in the sense that you can install whatever software people have made for it.
Out of curiosity how much did you pay for this console? Cos i for one am a little jealous of your find!

What that means is that you cannot jtag a console with that dashboard revision, but as bomernee has stated, once jtagged, you can then update the dashboard with edited system updates. Never update a jtag with a system update from a disk or online. _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

Another thing i just thought of, the games that load from the hard drive, they are not demos are they? _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.
