Sorry, another question...

Is it not possible to install games to the XBox HDD when using flashed firmware? I've backed up Batman: Arkham Asylum which plays from the DVD without any issues but when I try to install to the HDD from the backed up DVD (to save my laser from unnecessary wear) I get a DRE at approx 40% of the install process.

I made sure to use made in Singapore Verbatim disks and recorded at 2.4x.

First off, I highly doubt you backed up Batman, it's not even out retail yet.  But yes, you can install games to the 360 hdd with ixtreme.  Sounds like you have a bad burn and will probably run into DRE errors when playing from the dvd as well.  If you have a good burner, i.e. Pioneer, you can burn verbs at 4x easily.  Burning slower is not always better.

Lol at editing posts, It said you downloaded and you edited it to backed up.

Let's say I work for IGN and am reviewing an advanced copy.


Well if thats true wink.gif then your still breaking the rules, You can only back up a copy of a game you own. Review games there's no way to own it, You have to return it after your review then buy a retail copy.

Promotional copies can come for free for personal use, I'm sure.

Regardless, if I have broken the rules, please consider this a humble apology smile.gif
