Got myself a new crystal xbox on sunday as my other bust. I never evan thought about the hours and hours of music on there and the game saves, finished Halo on elite, project gotham1 fully finished ( that took me about a year!), project gotham2 finished on gold but with 38 platinum on the kudos world tour and golds on all the arcarde challenges, riddick almost finished, fight night finished with 5 boxers, bournout 3 maybe half way through, + some others. On a plus thou, my new xbox seems well is faster at times, it loads fight night in half the time of the old one, and the graphics are sharper (even my fiancee noticed this?) and the 5.1 sound is cleaner all round. My old box must have been really knackerd.

Don't do that yet, take out the HD manually (see one fo the mode sites for XB for instructions), and put it in your PC for direct file transfer. You can then ftp the files to your new Xbox HD using an FTP client.

The graphics are not sharper. Same internals. That didn't change. Could well load things faster, my Xbox with a Samsung drive loads Halo faster than my mate with a Thompson. Try getting a memory card and copy all the save game files over.
ITS COZ IT'Z BLACK INNIT!!!????!11
Is your old one completely dead?
