hi all i just got my xbox360 flashed tried a backup i got off my friend worked no probs. went to local computer shop and got some dl dvds 8 of them i have burnt all of them and only 4 has worked. i did not burn the same game over and over again. if one didnt work i tried the next game. now do you think this is a media fault e.g been bad disks for the 360 or do you think the games where duff copys?

What brand were the disks, and also what speed did you write to them at?
I use traxdata which are quite expensive, some verbatims, loads of tuff disc, and a few ridisc xtreme disks, all work perfectly fine, ridisc xtreme is a little crap though. The backups work fine, but around 4-6 in a tub of 25 wont work, so think of it as your buying 20 disks. ;)

Most problems are caused by cheap media, so try something like traxdata or verbatims.

I have used ridisc xtreme and they are not very good disks, try to avoid CMC mag, they are not good. Ritek, verbs, traxdata, are good.
