Hi newbie here, Read the rulez on posting, searched for my issue for a few hours - so long in fact I actually at one point forgot what my problem was!!!... any light shed would be great..... I can get working xbox backups when I burn iso files using nero 5 or 6 on my new Pion106 drive, although only if I use DVD+RW media. I know my xbox dvd-drive reads DVD-R media because I have tested numerous other titles written by my friend. strange I know but true. Incidently the dvd-r media used was datasafe silver gen4 ritek dye. If you can help feel free to reply , your advice will be greatly welcomed - If you cant help. well erm hmmmm erm then also feel free to reply.....
I only use memorex dvd+r and burn at the slowest possible speed.. also are u making iso's? don't use fusking xiso it will cause u problems big time.. nero should work fine just click on burn image and select the iso u made
I'm not making iso's as of yet. ( but I do own the titles of which iso's I am trying to burn naturally ... I burn all the media at 1x seems most reliable, thanx for the advice will try memorex DVD+R next. "could it be the region needs patching from ntsc to pal" I've heard the RW discs seem to pass the region/media check for some strange reason but the -R media doesn't without being patched. (maybe this explains why RW discs work and -R dont) (just a guess - not tested yet)
dvd-r and -rw both play fine in my box.. for some strange reason i just use the +r media... i doubt the region thing has anything to do with it but u never know..
