Figured i'd ask the pros as i'm kinda lost. Here's the scoop
Got my son's xbox 360 hack by a person i know. The person was having some issues doing it (guess it needed a cd to be inserted first to unlock the drive etc.). But the person said they got it done, and everything was ok. Well, i've been trying to burn a copy of my halo 3, the burn seems to work fine, but when i put the DVD in it just says mixed media. Do you think that he messed up the hack? It still plays orginals fine. Game was burned at 2X with Verbatim DVD+R DL.
Is there any sort of file that i can download/burn just to confirm that the hack is good?
if its saying mixed media then the flashing was done fine. odds are is it had a hitachi drive since you mentioned it needed a disc to unlock it. these drives are very very very picky about media (which isnt your issue as your using verbs). odds are it just needs a POT adjustment on the dvd drive so it will read the discs, or you can replace the drive with a better one (such as a benq). the replacement drive is what i would go for.
edit--
i would see if you could get a known burnt game from a friend or something and try it out.

How did you burn? Did you burn the .iso directly or did you use the .dvd file? What software did you use? Did you use AGBX? You didn't just simply burn the .iso file as data like when burning fotos to a cd?
Normally with a bad burn it's either the Open Tray error (aka Dirty Disk error) or "To play this game put it in an Xbox 360" error, when the layerbreak isn't set.
Mixed media is kind of strange meaning the Xbox 360 didn't recognize it as a game at all.
