How to Play Original Xbox Games on a Modded 360

There are dozens of Xbox 360 mods out there, each of which have different purposes. Some allow you to run other operating systems on your Xbox 360, essentially turning it into a makeshift PC. Others allow you to store and view media that otherwise wouldn't be able to be seen on your 360. But the majority of these mods, whether they be "hard" mods (physical changes to the hardware) or "soft" mods (software changes), are designed to allow people to play burned Xbox 360 games on their machines. While each of these mods adds functionality to the Xbox 360, none of them take away any of its existing functionality, including the ability to play Xbox games.

Instructions

1. Power on your Xbox 360 and let it boot up to the dashboard.

2. Open the CD tray and place your Xbox game in it.

3. Close the CD tray and allow the Xbox a few moments to read the disk. If your 360 is set up to begin a game automatically, the task is complete. If not, proceed to Step 4.

4. Navigate to "My Xbox" and press the A button on the "Play Game" option.
