Why did u try to make it into an ISO?

U didn't need to!

The Xbox reads the data as raw data.

U can wrap it up as an ISO, if u like, but the Xbox doesn't need it, and u run the risk of corruption during the ISO creation process !!

*Note to flamers* Xbox Games that are stored/run from the HDD are in raw data, NOT within an ISO!

Maybe need to look at getting glasses in your old age engineer ;) . And I think most of us are aware of how the Xbox works by now.


Anyways, try using Craxtion m8 or even xISO (Though this is known to have problems but I've never had a problem myself).

Somewhat backwards, old engineer has come up with a good suggestion. Are you able to put it onto your Xbox hard disk at all? That would at least proove that the game works.

And whilst we are at it, it would help us a lot if you gave as much detail as possible. Things like your Xbox version, DVD drive, chip type, media type, burner, proggy used to burn etc will all help to narrow the problem.

I wasn't saying how, or why u should put it on your HDD!!!!!!!

...I was trying to explain that you can BURN the data raw, rather than build an ISO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't worry, next time I won't bother.:mad:

Of course, that wouldn't be a problem if you were right. You can't just burn the data to disk and expect the Xbox to play it. At minimum you need to burn as a UDF disk (Nero handily providing a specific Xbox option) but ideally to save the Xbox any trouble reading the disk you want to create an ISO using the Xbox file system.

All I'm saying is you might wan't to be sure the advise your giving is correct before you go telling someone what they are doing is wrong.
