Xbox 360:Recommendations

This page will lead you through the basic setup of your console and general recommendations of what to install. This list assumes that you have a freshly JTAG/RGH exploited console.

• If you have a JTAG console, disable the eFuse Burning Circuit so that you never have to worry about accidentally updating your system with an official update.
• Save a backup dump of your NAND and KV info to somewhere safe if you don't already have one.
• Install XeXmenu.
• Install Aurora and set paths to scan for games. Keep XeXmenu installed as a backup.
• Install DashLaunch and:
  • Set default to your Aurora XEX so it loads Aurora on bootup.
  • Set X to boot to the Microsoft dashboard XEX (located in flash).
  • Block XBL if you don't plan on playing online.
• Modify your bootanim if you want to customize your boot up animation and sound.
• Install apps:
  • For emulating non-Xbox games: Various Emulators
  • For activating locked DLC or games: XM360
• If you want to mod games, install Xbox 360 Neighborhood and see this page for specific game mods.
• Set up LiNK and/or XLink Kai for system link play.
