i have a game backup that was downloaded from the net, which has only ever frozen once
then i have another that i ripped directly from my xbox, NFS.Underground, which freezes in the same location every single time-at the start of a race just after they say go.
am i ripping the game wrong or bruning it incorrectly.

freq707 it can be the game is not working. or the DVD+R
I use DVD-R only and Nero or DVD Decrypter to write it.
FlashFXP to FTP the game to the PC
Qwix to make the iso(and I do not patch them)

SUCCESS!
it works flawlessly

Next time try to edit your post.
I do not know why they are freezing.(try to search)
It can be your xbox.(the bios for the modchip)
or the DVD+R(try DVD-R)

oh, sorry! :]
i think it may be my bios to, because
when i turn on my xbox, it doesnt boot anything, just a black screen
and then, if its in the mood, when i open the disk tray, its boots up to the xbox logo (blue because its hacked)
majority of times, disk tray wont open so i havta turn box off then back on like 5times until it works.
once it boots, everything works perfectly though
i booted up my xbox with the chip turned off....no problems
but i have a 1.6b xbox so culd only find 1 bios that worked on it. and it was 'unofficial'
and help?
does anyone have an official bios that runs well on 1.6b?
can anyone email it to me?
thanks

This thread is only for GAME BACKUP. Search for the bios.

Hi I have been doing a ton of reading and actually managed to get my xbox softmodded with xbmc and dvd2xbox (not tested). I have also been able to very easily manage to FTP to my xbox and do anything I need thanks to this guide. The problem is that I have been making nothing but coasters for backups or so I thought. I have a samsung drive (2 holes in tray) and my dash is 3935. I used the softmod deluxe 4.5 to mod the xbox. I can not seem to get anything to play though. First I was using DVD+R media and read that may not work so I grabbed a DVD-R and it almost worked except it made the disk an auido disk? I then went and bought some DVD-R and DVD-RW and I got one of them to actually detect as a game. When I run it on the other hand it freezes on the evox logo. I then tried to play a different disk (which shows as unknow on my box) on a friends modded xbox and it worked fine. We both are using softmods. Any help would be greatly appreaciated.

I think it has to do with your softmoded xbox. Go to a softmod thread for help.

Alright I got it working. Must have been the media? Some reason it read better in his box which does not have a samsung drive. I burned it again and it worked granted it freezes (think this is a backup/xpe patch issue).

Hi

I am trying to backup xbox game using a Samsung drive with Kreon .81 firmware. I read so much my head is spinning. So many diferent software and method, it is amazing. Last weekend I modded my xbox 1.6 with the DuoX lite modchip and installed the slayer 2.7 dashboard (at least I think I did). I inserted the slayer dashboard dvd I burned and click install on manufacturer HD. Files were copied for a minute or so and the screen went back to the install screen.

Anyway...

For the last two evenings I tried for the first time to back up an xbox game (Fable). After trying several methods, I finally settled for the extract with XBOX backup creator 2.4/patch and create ISO with Craktion 4.0 and; burn with Nero method. It produced the closest to a working XBOX game I ever got to. It boots and start loading but when the loading is at 99.9% done, I get and error saying that my game has a problem and the disk is either scratch or damage. When I insert the original, everything works OK.

Does anyone have any idea what could cause this error, beside a scratch or damage disk...? and also to stop my head from spinning, is the method I am using OK or is there better one out there?

Fable
Problem: Game does not work from DVD when backed up with Craxtion 4.
Solution: Use Craxtion 3 or Qwix to back up game.
Fixed by: I dunno. Me?

Thanks Gent7907

I used Qwix to create the ISO and it worked great. At least now I know that the chip works.

Thanks again

Yes, but you can try DVD FAB PLATINUM 3 free for 30 days which will auto decrypt and iso or other formats for the PSP/X BOX games on clone, or other categories. Also has Data for older worn dvds or dvdr's, and does a good job of filling in missing info and skipping errors.. javascript:ol('http://www.dvdfab.net/mlink/download.php?g=PLATINUM'); They are going HD on the updated version soon for HD DVD +/- R/RW. You should take a free ride for 30 days. I use it on X Box Games and its so simple. Check the circle or question mark in right top corner for any questions. Its great! respect.. miker3x
