i am trying to load my back up copy of GUN onto my harddrive but when i do it says "Error a filename is too long" has anyone overcome this or does anyone know what i should do? it does it with the original copy aswell.is it simply a case of shortening a file name if so does anyone know which one.

i copied my GUN over to my hard drive by using DVD2XBOX. just put the original in the DVD drive and use DVD2XBOX to copy it to the hard drive. it automatically fixes the filenames and all that crap for you.

usually 'F:\Games' but it doesn't make any difference. your dashboard will probably automatically check there though, so it makes life easier.
(i assume you have an upgraded HD? without one, it's not a good idea to backup games to the HD) |

because usually theres not enough room
luckily gun is a small game and will fit on F assuming its empty if your Xfer the game with qwix it will usually allow you to rename any files that are too long during transfer. |

WTF.
If you dont have a folder called 'Games' in your F drive then make one (F:\Games). It's that simple. |

No it's not that simple as he doesn't have an F: drive.......  But he DOES have an E drive with a folder in it called games.... If it were me I'd consider putting my games there. |
