I have a Hitachi-LG HL-DT-ST GH40L dual layer dvd burner in my HP computer. My xbox has a lite-on drive that has been flashed with the latest iextreme firmware and I've been told that I need a specific lite-on dvd burner with latest firmware flashed to it in order to burn games fully to play on my xbox 360. I've also read that my specific dvd burner will work. My question is this...Is there a firmware for my burner that I need (Hitachi-LG HL-DT-ST GH40L) in order to be able to burn the COMPLETE game or can I burn games and still get the whole game without errors?? I understand that the flashing of the dvd burner is so that you get the full 8.7gb of the dvd used instead of the factory 8.5gb allowance(as I'm told)...allowing you to burn the entire game file. I'm just confused if I can burn my own games with the dvd drive I have now (Hitachi-LG HL-DT-ST GH40L)and if I can...do i need a specific firmware to do so...any help is appreciated...I'm kinda new to all of this and I just want to burn my own games instead of paying the guy who flashed my xbox for me...thanks :)

you will need the iHAS liteon burner to burn the new games properly,the only thing you can do with the hitachi burner is burn older games or truncated burns for the new games

There are some non-iHAS burners that can be cross-flashed, but yours isn't one of them. Buy one of the burners off the list in this thread: -

It's cost you $20 or less, so it's not expensive.
