    Default Password Protect Xbox Saved Games?

    Is there a way for me to password protect my saved games on the Xbox? My nephew and son like to play Xbox and I've noticed that on several games it automatically loads in your latest profile. The two of them keep (inadvertantly) screwing up my saved games. Is there any way to move/hide/protect those so they'll quit doing that?

    Last night I came home and found my favorite Need for Speed: Most Wanted car impounded. :/

    You can password protect your profile and turn off auto-login. That should keep those pesky kids out of your hard-earned saves.

    I believe Flack is still living in the Era of the Original Xbox, so that doesn't really help. Although it is one best imporovements that came with the 360.

    Truth betold Flack i can only suggest 2 options. Memory card, or Mega X-key.

    You're right, I'm talking about the original Xbox.

    Hm, you would think other people would run into this more often.

    If you have a modded Xbox, you could backup your saves on your PC via FTP, then when anyone screws with them, just FTP the good ones back...and everything will be golden and pristine.

    Obviously that won't help if you don't have a modded 'box...if you have a vanilla Xbox, I think your only choice is to get a memory card.
