theres also so many programs etc to use and i dont want to start downloading everything which i dont really need.
could one of you good people help me out, im totally new to this, but would really like to learn, if possible please you could send me some good links as to where i need to start.
i have a xbox original made in 2003 going spare, this has never been opened and totally original, i also have a spare 160g ide pata hdd seagate, i have splintercell, usb lead, powersupply, tools etc. im also ok at soldering, and ok on a pc, can download any programs etc. just need to know how to work/use the programs. it work be great if one of you could help a fellow xbox fan out. thanks very much for taking time to read this. if you need any info just let me know.

get yourself a usb to xbox adapter. they are only a few bucks on eBay.  and get a copy of splinter cell to start off with.
then I can walk you through it.
