Hi,
This may sound very noobish and stupid but i was just wondering if its possible to dual boot an xbox and windows on the same computer. Theoretically an xbox is just a computer with a different os isnt it??? So surely if i could attach my xbox hardrive to my computer i could dual boot it??? Just wondering if this would work and if not then why? what may be some possible problems i may face? has it ever been done?
Thankyou,
SLasham

Microsoft have made it so that it is not possible. If it was, how would they continue to sell xboxes???

I suspect that you will need to emulate the console's hardware, BIOS, Firmware, Etc.. Even if you own the equipment, not sure that's legal since you do not own the rights to the Xbox OS.
