COD MW3 and Battlefield 3 back ups giving disc read errors

I've used these with no problem for a long time but saying that XDG3 is different and these discs probably don't help with the 360's laser in any way. I don't mind buying verbs but the problem is I have a good few of these discs left and they're useless now if they don't work, suppose I could just burn some good popular XDG2 games on them if I can't get them to work. I was trying MrGreasers method and the game just about worked but with bad PI, but that's for memorex so mine are probably that different that they won't work properly that way.

 

sounds like your getting high PI and PIF results, try using mrgreasers guide http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-152/xgd3_pc_burner_max_memorex_a_cheap_media_tutorial-914320/ worked wonders for me, however it seems like its hit or miss for some...but its definitely worth trying

 

You are not alone!

Have MW3 dirty disc issues. Got it twice whilst playing for 2 hours. All other games XDG3 games are ok so far for me including BF3/Batman/GOW3.

Think this is another one like Forza 4. However puzzling is I have burnt it 100% using burner max. So think it has a CIV check missing on the actual P2P ISO. Will try downloading the scene release rather than the P2P one to see if it is any better...

Using verbatims MKM003 at 2.4x (not 4x) 100% burnt and 100% verified using IMGburn 2.5.5.0

Anyone else suffering same problem dirty disk error on MW3? May not pop up immediately...

Update - loads of ppl who have the original/retail version are having issues as well with it! Try installing onto HDD if you can.

Update 2 - Scene release suffers the same problems.

 

I get it in campaign just as you get brought in on the stretcher but I got a scene release so idk. XDG3 must just need the better discs (media) to work properly.

Also verbatim 2.4x are MKM-001 which people had trouble with, they had to use MKM-003 verbatim media to get good results.

 

is it installing fine to your HD? or are you playing from the disc?

 

If that message was for me I'll try to install it to the HDD tomorrow and I'm getting high PI after 50% with my cheap discs. I'll just get verbs if it doesn't install since I've tried the cheap disc tutorial as it is and got a lower PI max but a way higher PI average which makes it worse.

 

Hello Guys,

I have the iHAS124b with modded firmware, latest version of imgburn. I backed up my COD MW3 disc
I purchased yesterday using XBC and the 0800 drive with the V3 firmware.

Trying to write the image to a blank DL disc using imgburn (settings are correct)
and an iHAS1124b (modded ALOS firmware).

I still get the error message that the image is too large to fit the disc.

I cancelled the write.

Should I be seeing the message?

Will the modded iHAS writer just write the whole image?

I don't want to write only part of the image, I want to be sure imgburn will do 100% of the image.

Any help would be appreciated!

 

I have just got my ihas124 drive running through my win7 laptop via molex power ,usb to sata.Firmware flashed (not cross flashed)with modded burnermax to enable 2.4 burns on cheaper media(Aones dl)imgburn-latest version i have enabled opc force hyper tuning,online hyper tuning smart burn.Calculate optimum for layer break.Now i burnt the image and verified through imgburn with no errors.So far,so good.However running the disk at 2.4x through Kprobe im a little unsure about what the results mean.Yes they are a lot of peaks.Not too sure if this will be xbox live safe..as safe as it can be anyway.These are the results from the test.

As many people have said on here the only true image which is playable online is through the burner max drives.If you are content with playing offline and truncate your disks with only 97% of the disk burnt and no copy protection on later titles and forza now,then fine go ahead.For multiplayer fanatics who enjoy online play you have to burn 100% of the image to minimalise the risk of bans/flags.

 

Try and reflash your ihas drive and then reboot.The message should not appear after you have done this.Let me know if it is resolved.

 

I agree 100% with scoobpoo the way to go is with burnermax.If u play offline and not bothered about civ checks or random kickbacks to the dash cause you have trucated the disk then fine carry on.If multiplayer is your thing online you have to future protect yourself with the 100% image burning with a ihas B drive.Yes they have complications but once you have got through the 10 plus coasters trying to find out which settings work for your particular media then its all good.

 

i have MKM-003 verbatim, ihas124b with burner max, lt+3.0,but unfortunately i cannot install MW3 to disk, at %49 it gives error, and on disc sometimes i get dirty disc error(because it reads the problemetic part). I also checked it with abgx before burning. After burning it cannot not check and gives me an error, but xbox can (mostly) read the disc. I tried to write with different speeds x2.4 or x4(with opc on) both on imgburn 2.5.0.0 and lastest version of the CloneCd.
Now i realized that reccomended imgburn is 2.5.6.0 or later, mine is not, if anyone achieved it without imgburn 2.5.6.0 let me know because there is only 1 empty dual layer dvd left .

(Note: other xgd3 games works perfect bf3 & forza 4)
(Note2: I used both scene release and p2p release)
