      and yes def make sure you download the xport360 version 1.07

      (found it in the link provided by maynard ^^ thanks)
      yeah i have seen that video..my problem is that i can't drag and drop like he does..you can see his transfer over but mine just showes the circle with the slash in it. I have the newest version of xport also. That newest version still doesn't read my harddrive right away, I have to run it in administrator even though it is visat compatable

        hmm i wish i knew why it doesn't work. I had the exact same problem and i still never figured it out. I wish i knew how to do it so i could help you out, but i gave up because i also have xp so i just use that.
        I wish someone who uses it with vista could help us out..

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

          just out of curiosity what are u using to transfer to the HDD? i assume your opening partition 3 on the hdd? did u try deleting all 2k5 files on the HDD and then creating a new file to start from scratch?

          i have not done this transfer yet cause i dont have the cable, but i want to see u figure this out cause i have a feeling im gonna run into the same issue.....

          one other thing that may help is going into the device manager a deleting your drivers for the device your using to transfer the file......then connect the device to your usb port and let it re install the drivers......then hook it back up to the hdd and try again......

            Me to brotha...I am running xplorer in admin mode cause it lets me try to insert files at least. xport doesn't that i know of. So I have been opening the roster file which is the udata folder..then it gives me the 53450030 folder..so i drag that to the desktop and click on that to open it and it show me another folder which is 194ffbd951da and 3 files underneath that. Those files are the saveimage.xbx, title image.xbx, and titlemeta.xbx..if i understant correctly I need will be draging the 194ffbd951da folder to the xplorer360 right? Well that doesnt work for me cause I can't drop it so I have hitting insert file and then I go to the 194...folder and hit open..it then 4 more files which look like whats already in the xplorer360..they are EXTRA, SAVEGAME.DAT, SaveMeta.xbx, and TYPE. So I then one by one insert those files into the xplorer360 and they show up there so I know they are transfering. Then I close the program and hook up the HDD and load roster..I get nothin! So thats the exact steps I am using, maybe you can see where I am going wrong..hopefully! Thanks!

              I am using the cable that Microsoft sent me and yes I am opening partition 3 on the HDD. I havn't tried re-installing the cabel yet though. At this point I will try anything!

                  You are unzipping the file before you open it right?
                  you need to transfer the whole folder, you cant drag the 4 files in individually, they need to be together in the folder. If you can get the 194ffbd951da folder in then your golden..

                      Also there is no need to drag the file to the desktop.. i just drag straight from the window to the hdd. no need to save it to the desktop..

                        no need for winrar...
                        just download the roster file from the site and open it...

                          when you click the file from the site a little download prompt window will pop up.. download roster file..
                          click Open no need to hit save
                          now the window should pop up with the folder
                          Now unzip file ( to do this click "extract all files" in folder tasks which is on left side of window. extraction wizard will pop up. hit next, next, then finish.)
                          A new window will pop up with the same folder but this will be extracted.. so you can drag and drop
                          you can exit out of the first window with the non-extracted files
                          and do the steps

                              This may be my problem right here as I never have gone through any of that when getting the roster. I download and save. I don't see the extraction wizard or the next, next, then finish part ever. When I open from the site it pulls up winrar (evaluation copy). There is no folder tasks, i have the file button, commands, tools, favorites, options, and help. Then I have buttons under those that say "add, extract to, test, view, delet, find, and wiz". I have tried the extract to and it wants to put them on my desktop, so i do that and it puts a folder named GR182008 roster on my desktop which is the udata folder. So I don't know if I am actually extracting the file or not.

                                yes - winrar extracts folders/files
