    Doesn't sound like your doing anything wrong. Is there any files that failed to copy which you may have failed to notice? (bottom left corner - marked witha red x).

    How do the originals work? If they skip as well then there is a good chance that the drive is malfunctioning or that there is a shit load of dust on your fan at the back of the xbox.
    Clean it and check again.

    If the originals work fine then it isnt dust or your drive, rather the backups.


    You can always try the copy wizard function in craxtion 4 to see if it can have any luck with transfering the game for you.

    How are you burning it? And at what speed? with which program?

    thanks for the speedy response .

    im burning at 2x using nero , i open the file as an iso and burn it via nero the latest version .

    i checked that all the files were copied and they had been .

    the originals play fine so must be my back ups .

    when i patch the iso should i remove the default.bak or leave it .

    is it a possibilty that its my chip thats not working properly .

    is it possible that its these two games that have some kind of prolem ?

    not used craxtion yet , is it any good do you use it

    thanks for your reply
