hi i have been trying to solve this problem for a while i found cd-r's that my xbox reads and ive been using them for my ISO disc i have tryed my programs like Qwix,Craxtion,xiso, and alot more but none of them work i get this message saying my disc is dirty or damaged and i have been coping everything perfect(according to xbox-scene.com) PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!
yea, it depends on your drive. the "thompson" drive is the big piece of crap that wont work with nothin, but the samsung will actually read cd-r's...most of the time. As for this problem you are having, try cd-rw, but i gotta ask, what are you trying to make, is it a dashboard? if so, did you edit the INI files...um..but yea, try the cd-rw's. that should work...when u reply list what chip u got, what iso image u are trying to make, that might help us shed light on the situation.
I have been using CD-RW's but they dont even work.im trying to get the evox dashboard to come up.I have a Samsung DVD-Rom in my xbox witch reads most cd-rs so that wouldnt mess it up!! PLZ SOMEONE WHO HAS HAD A PROBLEM LIKE THIS ANSWER ME.
Try another brand. I hear bad things about memorex, but my fujifilm cdrw's work great with thomson, and samsung drives. or maybe your laser is worn out. get a new one for $25 at: http://stores.ebay.com/Tech-Consoles_W0QQsspagenameZl2QQtZkm the llama can guide you through laser replacement procedure: http://llamma.com/xbox/Repairs/Samsung_DVD_Complete_Disassembly.htm
use memorex cd-rw's only. or dvd-r's if your a rich kid also, if your using cd-rw's, you'll have to "pad" your cd's with any big file (ie: >= 100MB) especially if yours using the v1 or v2 xbox. the dvdroms suck in those machines
i have phillipsp drive and i use TDK cd-rw and it works perfectly for emulators, evox anything u just need to make an iso of evox. if u did and it still doesn't work use TDK because i made a copy of evox for my friend using TDK cd-rw and it works perfectly on his thompson drive
