To recover the console from a CD
- Disconnect the Kinect sensor array from the console.
- Burn the Recovery Disc ISO image to a blank CD or DVD.
- Place the disc with the recovery image in the console tray.
- Close the tray.
- The next step of the recovery process depends on whether you are in the development kit launcher, Xbox Dashboard, or booting from the CD.
- If you are recovering from the launcher, locate and launch dvd:\default.xex.
- If you are recovering from the Xbox Dashboard or if this recovery is for a retail console, launch recovery from the Xbox Dashboard by using the Play Game feature.
- If this is a "non-retail" recovery, reboot the Xbox 360 console.
- Run the recovery.
- Do not press the Guide button while running an ISO-based recovery, or recovery will crash and corrupt the flash. If you accidentally press the Guide button while running ISO-based recovery, re-run the recovery.
- When the recovery completes and the console tray opens, press any button to reboot.
- The console tray remains open after reboot.
- Connect the Kinect sensor array to the console.
