How to get the NXE

[Minstrels]

I've received a number of PM's and seen posts asking how to get it. Be warned, you can not connect to live till the 19th. I thought rather than answering all the PM's I may as well just make one thread, it wastes less time for me.

You'll need:
Pendrive / CD Rom
Xbox 360
WinZIP

Tutorial:

Download this http://rapidshare.com/files/159363566/_SystemUpdate.rar

Once downloaded, open up then extract to the desktop.

You should now have a folder on your desktop.

Plug in your pendrive to the USB slot on your computer and place the whole folder onto the pendrive.

Unplug the pendrive and place it in your Xbox 360 USB slot.

Turn on your 360 and update. .

This can also be done with a CD Rom, you just burn the folder onto it and place it in the xbox 360. I used the pendrive, it was easier.

Thanks for the thread, I think am going to wait till the 19th though, only 3 days.

I did it and got the tut of Minstrels, its really good but sucks it doesnt allow you to go online. Dya think on the 19th the'l enable it or will i have to do something else?

Well some people got the BETA via this and then they won the competition to be a real BETA tester and they were fretting that they might not be able to get back online until the 19th. However it turns out it updates on it's own, so you wont need to do anything on the 19th.

[Lost_Addict]

I wanna adapt to the feel so that as soon as I come home from school I can connect to LIVE and already get a rough idea. :P
