  1. I have noticed over the years that some devices don't like to be formatted on the Xbox and won't produce that one specific error you want in order to format it. Had this floating around on my Mediafire so figured I might as well post it here for those that don't have it. http://www.mediafire.com/file/8izx2p16papozbj/USBFATXFormatter_v1_3_2.rar
  2. so i have about 1k roms which file names are too long to be transfered to to character limit on fatx, how can i shorten the names (in bulk) without doing 1,000+ renames (also the xored mini trainer pack had the same issue not just as much of a pain (bout 5-6 etm's)
  3. HI there, I am trying to softmod my Xbox using a male joypad to female USB cable + Splinter Cell. The only compatible USB stick I could find at home is an old generic 1GB. The Xbox will detect and format it. Xplorer360 xill detect and write to it. Then everything starts getting weird. I can copy a game save on the Xbox from HDD to USB stick via dashboard. The Xbox will afterwards correctly see it. I can copy the SC game saves on the PC from HDD to USB stick via Xplorer360. And after a disconnect/connect cycle they will still be visible. But neither can see what the other does on the very same USB stick. Xplorer360 doesn't see the old game save and the dashboard doesn't see the SC game saves. I am going slighly mad here, please help!

  4. Since I moved over to Windows 7 64bit a long time ago now there's been one problem I've had with using Xplorer360 that has never made sense to me. Why does it see FATX formatted flash drives and display their content but the when you try to use an unlocked FATX HDD it always reports as no FATX device found. On my now deceased Windows XP SP3 32bit laptop it did work but was always a bit iffy. The solution is actually hinted at by that but in all those years of using Windows 7 I'd not come across any mention of this problem in any discussion of Xplorer360. There are even posts from a respected Xbox guru (no name) who states categorically that Windows 7 with Xplorer360 will not see any FATX device >4GB. It is not wrong because, clearly it doesn't but no mention is made that even using Windows 7 you can get it to see your unlocked FATX HDDs. I spent half the morning today just trying to get my FATX HDD to be seen by Windows and that in itself is difficult enough. A simple IDE > USB cable (+power of course) just didn't work for me. But a dual IDE/SATA external enclosure did after several reboots and cable changes. But Windows 7 64bit > Control Panel > System and Security > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Storage Devices still reported it as an uninitialized USB Mass Storage device with unallocated space. You do need to right mouse click the left hand panel of the HDD volume shown and use the initialize option provided but, obviously, do nothing else. But even then Xplorer360 thwarts you by not see what you know is an attached, Windows recognised, unlocked FATX formatted HDD. I was on the point of giving up and just happened upon this forum post from 2009 (hope it is OK to post this) :- https://www.se7ensins.com/forums/threads/getting-hdds-to-show-up-in-xplorer360-if-you-have-fatx-error-look-here.92832/ The answer is frustratingly simple: Run Xplorer360 in Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode. Depending on your default status you may need use the run as administrator option too. The other stuff in that thread is mostly just about using the most up to date version of Xplorer360 and the DLL missing from Windows 7 installations it needs. If you're using Xplorer360 successfully already with flash drives then it is irrelevant. My feeling is that any trouble you may still have will be down to the hardware used in connecting the FATX formatted HDD to the PC. The HDD must be recognised by Windows as an attached Mass Storage device but it may only display in the system tray as an USB to ATA/ATAPI bridge if it is in an external housing. Unlike FATX flash drives it appears it will not be shown in the Computer/My Computer overview screen at all either. But Xplorer360 will still see it and display the content. Whether the same solution will work for Windows 10 I don't know yet but definitely worth trying compatibility mode for WinXP SP2 whatever Windows version you're using.
