Putting games from pc onto USB/flash drive

Get a compatible USB stick and put the saves from your old 360 onto that
support.xbox.com/.../usb-flash-drive.

Once you put your profile onto a USB Flash Drive there is no need to keep moving it from the USB drive to the console. Just use it from the USB drive and it won't have the chance of becoming corrupt.




To remedy it in this case you need to recover it onto your console.

Hi AlphaKitty14,

If you'd like to use your USB Flash Drive to put videos onto it to view them on the console then you do not format the flash drive at all on the console. You will need to plug the USB Flash Drive into your PC, make sure it's formatted for FAT 32 and then just
drag and drop the files into a folder. You then unplug the flash drive and go to the Xbox 360, if these files that you've put on the flash drive are playable they will appear when you go to the Dashboard > TV & Movies > My Video Apps > System Video Player
> Select the Portable Device.

You only format/customize the USB Flash Drive on the console if you intend to use the USB Flash Drive for storing Xbox 360 games, downloadable content, and game saves, etc.

Hi, it vital that the USB flash drive is formatted to the FAT32 file format and that you extract the $systemupdate folder from the update file you download to your PC directly onto the flash drive. Do not download the update file onto the flash drive or
simply copy the file across from your PC. There should be nothing on the flash drive other than the $systemupdate folder..

If your console doesn't recognise the update it could be that the console is already updated to the latest version of the system software.

This link has full details regarding using a USB flash drive or CD to update.

Yes, you can put Games On Demand (as well as Arcade Titles) onto external USB hard drives or flash drives. The biggest partition that can be used is 32 GB. I have run several Games On Demand off of USB flash drives and have had no performance issues.
