If you mean if you can make backups on a dvdr, then it is most certainly possible. More than likely, the reason why you're backup didn't work was because of two reasons:

1) You didn't convert the game folder (with the contents of the game) into an xISO.

2) You burned it on a DVD-RW. Don't use those, try DVD-R.

i use roxio to do mine, but you can use many differnet programs like xiso, c-xbox tool or i think Nero can create iso's aswell.

Well, if you ever feel like using a different program to backup your Xbox games, go check out this Craxtion backup guide:

If it is not displayed on your dashboard (normally 1 of the 4 corners on screen) navigate to the network settings and it should be pretty easy to find from there.

VERY TRUE but remember it is only necessary to create a Static IP if you are connectiong your xbox and PC directly. If you're using a router you have the option of Static or DHCP.
