You can't boot unsigned code without the mod-chip enabled.  If you could just boot a copied game as if it was the dash, then you would be just as able to boot the same game from dvd-r.  Not gonna work.

                                    It wouldn't be unsigned,  ALL copies of retail games are signed (unless they have been patched).  However, it wouldn't run from a different media type than it was intended for (ie an original xbox dvd) so it still wouldn't work.

Once a game is extracted/copied to the HD, it looses the signed code and therefore, won't run ever again without a modchip.
