Gooday guys, just need alittle personal help, have tried searching the forums and have read many threads but just need direct advice channelled at my situation.
I have 2 xboxes, one an arcade which is unmodded and used to play games online and one with an origional hard drive which is modded to play burnt games. I swap the one harddrive between the two consoles dependent on whether I want to play real games online or ripped games offline.
I havent had my modded xbox flashed for quite some time (didn't do it myself, paid someone too) and have been using a boot disk for quite some time also. This has worked fine until my latest attempt. Usually I borrow games from a video store and burn them whih has always worked perfectly. But i recently purchased the kinnect. I downloaded kinect sports via torrent afew weeks ago which works via the boot disk but my latest download, Dance Central does not (burnt twice to rule out bad burning). When the console is turned on it sais it needs an update and to connect to xbox live (which i obviously cannot due to it being banned)
I than insert the boot disk anyway which boots as normal but when dance central is incerted it sais i need the update, skipping that notification and clicking on play game on the dashboard brings an unreadable disk message.
Will getting this update somehow (I've seen posts via usb?) fix the problem or does the problem lie in a new wave or the 2.5 as i've read.
Any insight will be appreciated.
Thankyou, oh also both are benq drives. I use verbatium disks too.

first of all,,thats a big no no,piracy talk is not allowed here,,second you need to update your firmware to LT+,,and patch the games throught agbx,and you can update to the new dashboard using the disc of a new game,,
yes you can install the dash via a usb stick or even burn it to a disc, its on the ms xbox site, you need to go to lt+ or even lt+1.1 depending on your dvd drive as there is now a newer antpiracy method called apr25
spend an hour on here reading all the posts on games not working
to flash your drive you have 3 choices
do it yourself, (you need the gear and know how)
get a mate to do it who has th the above
or send it off to be done
I have a Liteon without the LT+ that plays back ups. I have updated to the Kinect Dash. From what I remember now, I can play the non-AP25 Kinect titles without the update.
I updated my other machines to LT+ just to play the AP25 titles, which work fine.
So, what I'm verifying is that the LT+ update is only to play the AP25 titles...
