How to Burn XBox 360 Games Using a Flash Drive

The Microsoft Xbox 360 console has a feature that allows games to be burned to the hard drive. The ability to burn games to a USB flash drive was added when the Xbox 360 console was updated to support flash drive storage. The games can be run directly from the flash drive rather than using the game disc.

Instructions

  Turn on the console. The Xbox Dashboard menu will be displayed when the console starts.

  Insert the game disc into the disc drive.

  Scroll up to the "My Xbox" tab in the Dashboard menu. The default icon will be an image of the game inserted into the disc drive. This is the same icon normally used to start the game from the Dashboard.

  Press the "Y" button. This will open the "Game Details" menu.
- 6
  Select "Install Game" from the game details menu. A list of storage devices will appear.
- 7
  Select the USB flash drive from the list of storage devices. The console will begin to burn the game to the flash drive. A progress bar will appear on the screen.
