I know people have trouble getting the 20GB to read with the transfer cable. I've read some other people are having trouble with v2.0. when using the MS transfer cable as well, which is why I wondered aloud about a compatibility issue. You might have to backtrack to an earlier version. In the mean time, I'll keep hunting around to see if I can find something for you.

Thanks in advance for being so kind and helping me with this, you seem to be the only one that doesn't have problems regarding NFL 2k5!

I'm using a 20GB HDD, came with the regular 360, maybe within 6 months of the release date. I was browsing the forums and some people did say they have had issues connecting as well. I might just wanna get a new HDD, depending on how cheap it will be.

I can't seem to find the link, with the ... abbreviation, Firefox can't find the link... Break it up into separate lines?

No prob. I'm thinking that it's some type of pairing issue with the 20gb as the cables "official" intention is to attach to the 120gb and tranfer from the 360's "attached" 20gb HDD. If you're not looking to upgrade HDDs just yet, you might be better served just buying another tranfer kit (like datel's).

Anyway, weird that Firefox didn't pick up the link. See if this works:

http://xport-360.software.informer.com/1.1/

That page has a link to download another earlier version (1.12)...though I'm thinking it's probably not going to help much with the 20GB

Good luck and I'll keep an eye out for you

There is nothing wrong with the 20gb. All you have to do if you having trouble with the drag and drop is with xplorer.

create a folder and rename it the folder that you want to drag with the same name. Then insert file start from bottom to top i think data.... then load your game and there you go...

I think you might be misunderstanding what we were discussing. The issue we were discussing wasn't with drag and drop, it was with HDD recognition.

There is an issue with the 20gb and the MS transfer cable (the one that comes with the 120gb HDD). For some reason a lot of people can't get it to be recognized. (I still can't find a solution anywhere )



On a more positive side note, if you're talking Vista, that "drag and drop" workaround is more work than it needs to be. Just turn off UAC, reboot, and you should be good to go

Going to give Microsoft a call today and see if I can get a free HDD transfer cable. I really want to use updated rosters, it's going to make my 2k5 experience 100x better.

I was wondering about instead of using the cable for $40 what about using a zip or flash drive? could you plug in the usb port in the front of the xbox. I'm trying to get a free cable from Microsoft but so far no luck

no u need a transfer cable. just the way it is
the usb drive has no chance same reason u cant save music that way

call and tell them u bought a 120 hdd n need the cable. they shouldnt need a serial number since u need to upgrade hard drives but dont have an elite but may not work.... its worth a shot....
