Well what dvd drive do you have? And which dash are you running? Which firmware is on your dvd drive? Id say reflash the drive to the latest firmware for your drive. If I knew the answer to those questions I could tell you which firmware you need. Also do other games boot ok that you have backed up? It could be the way your burning it or the disks your using to. What do you have your layer brake set to?

Have you patched the disk with the new topology patches? It actually depends on what dvd drive you have and the dash your on as to what needs to be done to get it to run. Get the latest version of abgx as it will patch it to pass the new checks. That should work. I'm guessing your using a dash later than 13599 and or you have a different drive than a samsung. My xenon boots black ops fine without patching on dash 13599 but my falcon didnt boot the same disk till I used lt3.0 and used the new abgx to patch it properly. I was curious about your dvd drive because some don't do ap25 checks and some do.
I was wondering which dashboard your on to know what checks the 360 is doing before trying to boot the disk. If patching the game with the above doesn't work update to the latest dash and firmware for your drive and after that you should be fine but all games with those checks will need to be done the same way. Its a small list though. There's a small chance it could be your layer brake settings as 360's have to have the same brake on all games and can not be burned without setting it manually. Hope this helps http://abgx360.net/

yes thats the right or I should say current dash. If your jtaged you have to update your flash first or you will brick your jtag. if you just have a flashed drive then all is good but I'd have immediate plans for flashing to current dvd firmware. If you have no hdmi then you have a xenon with a samsung drive unless it was changed. If you don't have the original type drive then newer games wont boot just so you know. you will need to know your drive type to flash the right firmware on the dvd drive. I believe lt 2.1 is the latest for samsungs I'd have to look to be sure. what program are you using to burn disks? I dd also notice some dvd drives wont burn 360 disks somewhere is a list of drives that do. ill look for it and if i find it ill put a link here.
