Did you flash your xbox with a new bios?

You mean using the switch? That really doesn't mean it's flashed.

Also, how are you making the backups?

i can push the power button 1sec quick it boots normal using normal bios. i can push it for 2 sec long and it boots in aladdin bios(chip boot). with aladdin bios appears a evo X icon in the left of the screen. the games i burnt only work from cd and dvd games i burn on the same way just with Alcohol 120%. but my Xbox always say when i insert a backedup game or copy it says cant recognize disc...
the same is when i insert a movie(not burned but bought) so illegal doesnt work too. but that should work with a chip. i don't have a dvd kit. so i don't still get what's wrong. it only boots games on cd. that wouldn't boot without modchip.

i've called the guy that did my Xbox he said it depends on your dvd drive and you may need dvd-r and i burned them on +r but now i have another problem i want to burn these +r to -r only i can't copy them because i only have my dvd recorder and a cd recorder so i don't have 2 dvd drives. how do i make a good backup from these dvd's

Yeah it's probably the media you're using. I use +R, but the drives are different so try using -R
