Burning an Update to a 360 Console

You can update your Xbox 360 console software by downloading the update to your computer from Xbox.com, burning the update to a CD or DVD, and then installing the update on your console. Here's how:

-On your computer, download the update file.

-Click Save to save the console update .zip file on your computer.

-Unzip the file. If you are using Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7, double-click the .zip file to unzip it.

-If you are using Windows XP, Windows Vista, or Windows 7, double-click the .zip file to unzip it.

-If you are using an earlier version of Windows, you need to use a special software program to unzip the file (for example, WinZip).

-Insert a blank, writeable CD or DVD into your computer.

-Copy the contents of the .zip file to the root directory on your CD or DVD, and choose to write (burn) the files to the disc.

-Once the files have been burned to disc, remove that disc from your computer and insert it into the disc drive on your Xbox 360 console.

-Restart the console.

-When the console restarts, the installation program starts automatically. Select Yes when you are prompted to update the new console software.
