STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS: HOW TO GET LATEST ROSTERS ON 360

[bluewave]

Well I just called Xbox to see if I can get the transfer cable.I played dumb and said I just won a used Xbox 360 Elite off eBay, need something to transfer files on my current 360... yadayada. The tech support gal asked if the Elite is under warranty and I said no. When I said that, she immediatly told me that Xbox can't send me one since it's not under warranty. Let me tell you, my heart sank to the Earth's core when I heard that.

I tried to work around that, but she was being very adamant about not sending me one. Whatever.

So I'm going to simply buy a cable off eBay. Before I do, I want to double check and make sure that I buy the right one. Here is the link to the cable:

Thanks for the help.

Dude, just try again. I had to try a second time and I got mine. Some of the people are a bit more naive than others, so keep lying and eventually they'll be asking for your address. Lol.

Well it wouldn't hurt to try again. I'm tempted to call back later today, but I don't know if that's too soon. Maybe I should just say I won a used 120GB HD instead of a whole Xbox 360 Elite console, eh?

And the eBay link, is that what I would be receiving from Microsoft?

I followed the all the steps to transfer the rosters, everything went ok. The last step say's to connect the hardrive load the game and go to settings. Is this the system settings on the 360 and if so where do I go from there. I started the game and it does not show the rosters I loaded. I am so close any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

No, not the system settings. Load the game up and go into Options, Click Load and your new roster should be showing there (NFL 09 roster if it is JSOU's) or FUNGUNV19a or something along those lines if it is FUNGUN's.
Hit load and you should be good to go.
Enjoy

I loaded the game went to options to load the 2 rosters I transferred but they do not show up. I connected my hardrive to my computer and checked with xport360 to verify the rosters were on the hardrive and they were. Any other suggestions? should I do the whole process again or I am I missing something. Thanks

I would say try again, it usually takes a few goes before you get it right. Pay particular attention to step 12 to ensure that you are dumping the roster into the correct area.

Ok guy's, I tried this several times. I followed the steps and again everything seemed to go ok except when I load the game the rosters do not show up. Any more suggestions on what I might be doing wrong. I'm not sure how much more of this I could take. I don't need to be connected to xbox live when I go to load the game do I? Any more help would be appreciated.
