You can always try FTPing or using your file explorrer and find all your CACHE folders and clear them out. Delete all the files in them. And also check your game saves and if they have any with the games your having trouble with delte them.

Yer, clearing Cache is good to do once-in-a-while. Empty the following folders,

E;/Cache
X
Y
Z
only the things inside the folders.

Woooah...hold on there!...How are you putting these games on the drive...Originals need to be put on with the hdd loader ( not dvd2xbox) or the media check in the xbe stays intact!!!Backups you can just ftp cos the media check is already removed..Then if that don't do it look in evox settings and turn off ALL instances of "in game reset" IGR..and set game region to default or auto (try both)...

Read somewhere that Madden 06 got some copy issues..maybe needs a HDD patch..

The newer versions of DVD2XBOX remove the media flag. However, this doesn't seem like a dashboard issue. HOWEVER, go into your settings and change your region code settings from AUTO to PAL or NTSC (whichever one you're in). Also, look in E:/Cache and see if you have any files in there. If so, delete them. Look in X, Y, and Z folders as well and if any files are there, delete them too.

EDIT: Looks like I've been beaten to it :P

Edit your frikin post and take out the long (HELPPPPPPPPPP) crap you typed. It is messing up the page. Also type in lower case. All Caps means your yelling.

Once you do that then maybe we will help you with your question!!!!!

Thanks for all of the info. I know there was probally already a trhead about it but i couldnt find. I used the newest version of dvd2xbox from xbox-tribe and it will do regular games fine. After i cleared all my cache from x,y,and z madden worked and forza is fine to and they are both bought games. so i do know that you can use dvd2xbox to copy bought games if you have the newer version. thnks again to everyone lots of help.

Clear the "cache" folder in drive "E", also clear drives x,y,and z. I have san adreas on my hardrive and it plays perfect if you keep thos folders clean. Once those folders start collecting stuff alot of my games wont play. Keeping them Clean should help.

@addicted2

You dont delete the CACHE folders you delete the files that are in the CACHE folder.

You do this by either FTP to your Xbox or by using your dashboard file manager to do it.

I meant to delete the cache files and not the folder. I think i said "clear the cache folder" not delete it. Read A little closer!

You did say "Clear the CACHE folder" but you gave that advice after 3 of us already said to CLEAR YOUR CACHE FOLDER.

It kinda sounds like your being snippy with him by saying "Read A little closer!" It was a misatke on his part. Be thankful others didnt have that attitude when you was asking questions.
