I am a noob in this area. I was scared of being banned early on and recently a friend told me about the flashed xbox 360s. I will probably get the things to do it myself but, because I didn't want to wait I paid someone to flash it to LT+. It is a 20gig Xbox from 2005 with a hitachi drive. Most backups have played that I have tried but I have issues with a few.
One game installs to 30% then fails and will play through the first level from disc before I get a cd read error. Another game fails at 70% install and I am afraid to start a game. An expansion disc for a game I was able to install 100% after trying a 2nd time to read the disc, now it won't read the disc so I can't start even though I installed it and my friends say that I don't need the expansion disc once its installed only the main game disc...
I was using memorex discs, abgx, and imgburn. I picked up verbatim today to check that and still no luck as far as the expansion disc goes. I was told that I could try pot tweaking the laser and if that fails could buy a new laser. Anyone have any other ideas? I don't know anyone nearby with a flashed xbox I can try a disc on. I would need the screwdrivers and multimeter for the tweaking.
Update* took apart the xbox for my 1st time. Cleaned the lens and lubricated the metal arms. Still having the same trouble. Think I'll order a new laser or maybe a new drive. I don't have the hook ups to flash yet and not sure I want to spend the money on it quit yet so may try the new laser first.
