My solution was using XBC, clik on the Unlock Drive button a couple of times, then extract the current partition instead of the whole disk using XBC. Then extract the SS, PFI and DMI to the same directory (again with XBC). Merge it all together using SS Merger 1.7b. I then burnt it with XBC. My Legacy backup copy seems to work so far.

This solution worked for Legacy which came up with the same partition error message..hope it works.

Help, when I try to merge my crackdown files with ss merger, I get a message saying 'iso is smaller that xtreme style lenght' and when I load the ss file the md5s show up read. I unlocked the drive several times with XBC to pull all the files. any suggestions??

Netman66 - my backup said the same thing of legacy about the size..it seems to work fine so its probably worth a disk to check to have a go

some people dont want to do the easy thing, they like complicated, to each his own

OK, Now, using SS Merger 1.7, I get an error saying I must select a video partion?? WTF. Do I need to copy that from the original disk to the same directory as my other files?? Also, If you know of any other problems that might crop up I would appreciate some advanced warnings. Thanx

Well, I got it to merge but when I try to burn it with XBC I get an error "expected size 7.05G, actual 7.18G", "write Failed", Now whats up?? Did I screw up the merge somehow??

props to wabashman

seach it on google and it will bring up a link to download. i believe its from xbox-scene, and no im not promoting the site, just saying where its from, becuase i dont think its available on AD. and to response for the video partition someone just posted on, click the fill with blank, or whatever it is. then it will allow you to merge it.

just flashed the 0078 and it works like a charm......after a bunch of reading that was easy! can i use the same method and the firmware toolbox 3.0 for older versions of the hitachi drive also?

Will XBC 2.4 read the game like it did with the other older 360 games or will I have to extract the SS, PFI and DMI and do the Merger?
