Yep .... you're missing a step alright  wink.gif  You need to read about Burner Max. What game of yours are you backing up ?

To burn it you need a liteon iHas drive flashed with burnermax firmware and imgburn.

To rip it properly from your original you'll need the latest version of xbox backup creator.

UM your all wrong all I did was use my regular drive to burn I had opened up imgburn and then when your about to burn a 8.7 disc it will give you 2 options.chose the second one (truncate) and then burn lol.Also you will have to download the new version of imgburn.

I have done this for all the new games all ready.

Must be lots of padding in Skyrim, the jtag rip is only 3.6 gig.

lol wont truncate remove some of the game data?


depends on the game (specifically how large the game is determines if game data or random padding gets chopped off). truncating will work for some games, but not for others. regardless, it is NOT a live safe method. anyone who won't spend the $19 for an ihas burner has to be crazy, or burning for an already banned console

Also, if a game has CIV (constant integrity verification) checks, then an error message could just pop up at any point in the game and you'll be booted back to the dashboard.  So yeah, truncated disks = FAIL.    Go ahead and splurge on the $19 iHas burner.   Treat yourself, you deserve it  smile.gif
