Talk:USB Storage To Xbox Memory Card HOWTO

From Xbox-Linux

I am following this pretty closely but in the drivers directory i only have xbreader.inf and xbreader.sys

and xp claims there are no compatible drivers availible etc etc...

any hints?

A: Yes the sys file is the driver file and the inf file is what it drives ok. so what you need to do is edit the inf file so your device is on the list of supported devices for this driver. Look in the devices section for a line with pid vid in just copy this line and change the VID number and the PID number XP when looking at this inf file will see the PID No and VID No match the device your trying to install and will attempt to communicate with it via this driver. Go back to the main article and you will see this is what he is telling you.

Does not work

I have followed all of these steps multiple times and have also tried:

Uninstalling the device prior to changing the driver to the Actionreplay driver
Renaming the Actionreplay driver USBSTOR.SYS and replacing USBSTOR.SYS in Windows\System32\Drivers
After this, Windows still recognized it as Storage Device. The new driver was some other file. I replaced this in a similar fashion.

Despite all of this:

Windows continuously recognized the device as Storage Device, and maitained access to the USB device, which I can only assume meant that it was restoring the files in the Drivers folder at each startup.

Action replay never recognized the device

Windows always insisted that the Actionreplay\ and Actionreplay\Drivers folders "Did not contain information about my device"

I know that this is ABSOLUTELY the wrong place to ask advice, and that the purpose of a Wiki is not to field support questions, but I am at the end of my rope. I have absolutely no idea what to do. I went through allot of trouble just to get my Xbox to recognize the USB device. I really don't want to give up now.

Any help is appreciated.

Also, as I think the first guy was trying to say, the guide specifies an '.ini' File that does not exist. I have an '.inf' and '.sys' file. There *is* no '.ini' file. I tried to create one by renaming a copy of the inf file but this had no effect.
