Yes you will have to burn with IHAS drive
Truncating with clone cd etc wont work
no real work around

Dang it, so what backup games i can play the older xgd2 type games ?

Also where is the cheapest place to get the IHAS drive, you have the model # I need or something? Again this is a dvd burner drive for my desktop pc right? After getting this IHAS drive do I simply use the imgburner program to burn or is there more stuff I got to do?

And never mind about that other issue i was talking about its not doing that issue no more. thanks

OK so i have the memorex dvd dl and I whenever trying to burn gow3 xgd3 it kept stopping around 50% with i/o error. So I flash the ihas 124b drive with that media code speed edit, to make the drive think the memorex are the vermatin or what ever it does, so I can burn at 2.4x.

So i did this flash and finally gow3 burn went successfully 100% no errors, so i pop in the phat Hitachi flashed 59 360 and everything was beautifully it read it and loaded it it seem little tad slow or the drive was struggling a little maybe but..... ok so i fire up a new campaign and the intro cut scene when that lady starts talking to marcus all the in-game textures are not loaded its like washed out.

Anyone know whats up, do i need to tweak some settings in imgburn for burning process or what? Heres the guide and imgburn settings i used to burn this game thanks

Use Verbatims -- better results

Apart from the Fact the Hitachi is the worst of the drives ever to appear in an XBOX, i strongly suggest you use Verbatim disks the ones made in Singapore, you can burn these at 4 speed or 2x4 speed. I always burn mine at 2x4 and verify the burn and never have any coasters.

Seems like bestbuy is the only place in town that has verbatim they are like 25 bucks for 25 pack or something. How do I know they are from singapore?

Now even with these memorex might as well try to use them up how about xdg2 games do i use the same exact img settings just the leave the settings alone? Do i least clear the opc option since these are xdg2 and not xdg3 before buring? thanks
