XeXMenu is the new replacement for XeXLoader. Renamed as such, because it’s now much more of a menu than just a loader.
Download XeXMenu from xbins
If you have already installed XeXLoader following the steps above, then use the CD you created to boot XeXLoader
Extract C0DE99990F586558 from XeXMenu LIVE.rar to a USB key
Put the USB key in your 360 and copy C0DE99990F586558 to
hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\C0DE9999\00080000
Choose yes when prompted to overwrite the original file.
If this is a fresh install after doing the JTAG hack, and you don’t have any other loaders installed, then you can either burn a CD or copy the files directly to the HDD
CD: Burn the contents of XeXMenu XEX.rar to the root of a CD, the put it in your 360. Then follow the USB steps above.
HDD: Extract C0DE99990F586558 from XeXMenu LIVE.rar
Connect your HDD to you PC and copy C0DE99990F586558 to
Partition3\Content\0000000000000000\C0DE9999\00080000
Using XPORT 360 or Xplorer360
To connect your HDD to your PC you will need a connectivity kit of some sort, or remove the drive from it’s housing and connect it to you pc via standard SATA connectors.

I don’t know why the creators of this fine tool failed to include simple installation instructions.
Thanks for this; the XEXLoader to XEXMenu update is where I was stuck.
do i need a jtag ? plz reply fast 😀
Sorry, only just seen your message. Yes, you do need a “JTAG”
will the modded xbox work without the jtag
Not sure I understand your question. modded xbox? what sort of mod?
I mean to say that it runs the games which are available in Pakistan and also the dvd-r and dvd+r but it doesn’t run the xex loader cd which burned and tried to run .I hope this time you understand my question. Simply i want to run xex loader cd on my xbox 360 but doesn’t run it can you help me run xex loader cd on my xbox
Hey, sorry I haven’t checked this blog in a while.
To be able to run unsigned code such as XeXMenu or any other unofficial software, you will have to mod the box. Commonly referred to as the JTAG hack.
Running backups of your games from DVD+R only requires the DVD drives firmware to be flashed.
Retail games still run fine.
You WILL be banned from XBox Live if you “JTAG” your 360.
Think that should cover it lol 😉
Hello, I’ve been following your install like the many others I have came across with no avail. All the steps I try don’t work. I tried installing in all different directories. I tried all dashes, tried to work with NANA flasher and all NOGO. What am I doing wrong? I am pretty sure I have a Falcon. My xbox plays backups and the M$ dash says its 2.0.9199 …the 9199 I thought meant it was JTAG’d but I believe I am wrong ….at least people with said JTAG’d boxes work with no probs. XeXmenu does show up under memory settings when I go to delete it, however, under game library shows up for a millisecond before the M$ dash says there’s no games in the library. Is there a way to trick the dash by using a specific directory when installing on my USB with XTAF360Xplorer?
I have the latest software and firmware I got from xbins, not really sure what’s best for me and what I am trying to do. I want to run emulators and homebrew and the XeXMenu so I can rip games via ftp to my computer then burn them. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I’ve spent countless hours doing research with no positive information which is helpful for this situation.

To use any of this stuff, your console must be “JTAG’d”. You would need to be 100% sure what mobo revision you have in order to do this hack, therefore I’m going to take you being “pretty sure” you have a falcon, to mean your console is not JTAG’d.
In order to be able to JTAG a 360, it’s dash version must be 7371 or lower. You then install a *hacked version* of a newer dash, such as 9199.
If you are already on a stock version of 9199, or anything above 7371, then there is no way for you to do the JTAG hack, and it is not possible to down-grade to 7371.
