Fallout: New Vegas(Xbox 360)??? How do I hack computer terminals on this game?

Everytime I log on to a computer on this game I cant figure out the right codes to hack it. I only get four tries to pick out of 100 or so words on the screen. Even when it says that the terminal is “easy” I get the same problem. How can I tell which characters on the screen to pick if I only get 4 tries? This is is difficult and it is stopping me from doing a lot of things on this game. 10 points to the first person that helps me.

First choose 1 word out of them, and see what result you get. You will be told x/y letters is correct, where x is the number of letters in the word you choose that is correct and in the correct places, while y is the number of letters in the words. Using this, you can usually narrow the choices down. For example, if you have only 1 letter correct out of HEAT, then you can cross out any words that have more than one letter in common with it: MEAT BEAT HEAD.

Also be on the lookout for any group of random symbols that are grouped together by brackets, parenthesis, etc. When you place the cursor over the first grouping symbol and a section of symbols get highlighted, click on it. Clicking on such situations may restore your number of choices, or remove wrong answers.

Edit: Also, until you get better at the mini-game, I recommend saving before you hack each terminal. This way, you can back it up and not miss out on whatever the terminal is protecting, and you don’t have to waste a perk space on the perk that allows you one more chance to hack a locked-out terminal.
