Youll need jungleflasher, a connectivity kit, a couple of bits of wire and a soldering iron.
Read the FAQs and guides.

He's either bought a probe or made one, thats what the soldering iron is for as you only need a couple of wires and needles.
Yeah youll need a Sata card, forgot about that.
You do realise that this is only a means to playing legitimate backups of games which you already own btw...

Bit of a bump here.
I have 2 white fat 360s under my bed both with rrod. Is it cheap enough to get them working, flash them and play backups of my games i have on my shelf?

Rrod can be pretty easy to fix, to flash the Xbox doesn't it have to be one of the old xbox's with the old software on it?

You can repair a RROD without a proper reflow, but its pot luck how much longer youll get out of it: some people havent had it go again, others have had it last a few weeks. Repair them on the cheap, then trade them in to HMV or some shit. I normally charge £10-15 to flash Xboxes, so thats cheap enough. Creating backup, youll need a drive to read the discs and create ISOs, then burning backups youll need a specific burner if you want good reliable, Xbox Live safe backups. Youre looking at £30 for each of the drives more or less.

Sorry just got back to this.
I'm going to try repair one of the xbox's this weekend. Tried once before but it didnt work :(.
If i get one fixed. Is it worth following the Jungle How to and flashing? I dont have a USB drive thing so im thinking i can just plug my xbox drive into my PC's port?
I'll have a proper read of the Tutorial when im home.
When you say XBL safe games are some not safe to use? it'd be for offline games anyway anything i play online i'd buy and use on my real sexbox

You need a SATA connection or PC card to connect to the Xbox DVD drive to flash it.
360 games are XBL safe IF you burn the backups correctly. You can burn a backup using crap methods and the disc will fail security checks and flag you for a ban in no time.
PM me if you have any specific questions.
