How to Install XBox 360 Games into HDD

When Microsoft upgraded the Dashboard on the Xbox 360, it added numerous features, including an all-new user interface, gamer profile avatars and the ability to copy games to the hard drive. There are a few advantages to having a game saved on a hard drive, most notably decreased load times. Also, game discs can become scratched and, although the disc must be in the tray to play the game, the Xbox 360 only needs to recognize the game to boot it up once it's saved to the hard drive.
