 | | Software modding is much less intrusive and only involves running software exploits to trick the Xbox into running unsigned code. |
 | | This allows running an alternate dashboard such as Avalaunch or Evolution-X and in turn makes playing NES, SNES, N64, Gameboy, and Sega games possible through emulators. |
 | | Besides the purely aesthetic, some common reasons for modding an Xbox include the ability to save entire Xbox games directly to the built-in hard drive, playing DVDs without the $30 DVD dongle/remote, and turning the Xbox into a computer running Linux or even Microsoft Windows OS's. |
