i have an flashed xbox 360(dont know which firmware bought like this, the only backup i have tried so far is ufc undisputed 2010, it will read it as a dvd, it reads movie dvds, and originals, but not this backup. and i followed a tut on how to burn to make sure i done everything right and everything was green. any thoughts, reflashing is not an option as i dont feel like it, i am used to the wii which to me seems alot more simple to deal with. thanks for any info

The problem is more than likely you have older FW installed on your drive which will not read the newer games. If you CBA reflashing, then your best bet is to patch the disk to a lower wave.

See this guide here

Ok I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but I would say either you have an old firmware, one that doesnt support the newer wave games, in which case you need an activate iso, or you have a bad burn, are you using Verbatim discs?

I would burn off an activate iso and then try that first, if it doesnt work and you need to try burning another copy, it wont hurt to have an activate disc incase you have ixtreme 1.61 which doesn't let you play games you stealth patch, the iso has to be unaltered.

Not a great answer, hopefully someone else can give you more of a direct answer then my guessing/suggestions.

Try and find out what firmware you have as it will help people figure out whats wrong.

see the problem with that is it was bought of ebay with rrod i fixed and the person that had it said that they cant remember but they think its 1.5(which i understand is out of date) they also said a few months ago they were playing cod modern warfare 2 i think, i was just going to keep this console if it would play backups but if i have to reflash then i will just sell it, because i am not opening the only computer i have and trying to flash an xbox, thanks for the help oh and yes i am using singapore verbatim dl, and imgburn.

try the guide I mentioned, if its 1.5, this only supports wave 1 & 2, for wave 3 and above titles you will need to patch the disk. If he's played COD on it then he's prolly patched the ISO. Just so you know, patching the ISO will prolly get you banned.
