Hi,

I've just installed my Chameleon solderless modchip. I also just bought a new LG GSA-4040B DVD burner.

I've followed the instructions on a website. I ftped into my box, copied the files over, made an ISO with gdfimage, burnt the game using NERO.

When I put the game into the drive, it won't load. When I ftp into the box and then go to the dvd drive, it looks like there is nothing there.

ANyone have any ideas for me? I read something somewhere about needing to patch the default.xbe file?

Your help appreciated!

Well .. I tried craxtion.

It patched up the xbe files for me (which I hadn't been doing). But the same problem occured.

I put the disk in, the box doesn't know it's there and the game won't run.

In the intial message, I indicated that I am using Nero 6.

I am using Memorex 4x DVD + R 4.7 gb. I am using an LG GSA-4040B dvd burner.

Do you need to use one of the modchip's apps to copy the game over to a hard drive first and then copy it using an ftp program?

Or can you just copy it right off the D drive?

Hey guys!

Thanks for all your help! The resolution to the problem was to switch from DVD+R's to DVD-R's. Everything is working like a charm.

Thanks so much!
