Hi guys. I recently got my Xbox 360 flashed by a friend and he lent me a few games to play. They work fine. However, I wanted a few more games so I bought a pack of Verbatim 2.4X DVD+R DL disks (confirmed: Made in Singapore) @ Newegg.

I've read tutorials all over the internet on how to burn a 360 game. Well, today, I tried to burn my first game. Popped in the DVD+R DL, put all the settings and selected the .dvd file to be burnt. About 1% in, I got an error. Does anyone know what the problem is? I tried googling for a solution but couldn't find a solution. If it helps, I use my laptop drive as a burner (my friend does as well and it works well for him).

I've tried CloneCD as well- same problem It worked for up to 2% but got my hopes up too early. The same thing happened when I used ImgBurn. It would start burning, with the correct write speed and all, and then drop to 0 kB all of a sudden.

What I did before this was download DVDInfoPro, to check if my drive could write to DVD+R DL, and indeed it could ("Supports DVD+R Double Layer Write").

I would really, really appreciate help. I've been pulling my hair out trying to solve this problem. My DVD burner is a laptop one- a fairly new one I purchased about half a year ago. I'm all for purchasing a new burner; if you could give me some recommendations (like an actual model, not just "Pioneer"), I would greatly appreciate that also.

Thanks for the help!
