I put a 120 gig maxtor in my xbox and everything works great. Emulators, games on HD, everything. The only problem is that all my original games will not play. All of my backed up games will play and the ones on my HD will play fine too. Am I missing something? What do I need to do? Or is the the trade off for putting a bigger HD in the XBOX?

your original games should play fine..

do cds play in your xbox dvd drive? have you checked alll connections in your xbox to be sure that the dvd power or ide cable is not connected? if they are fine, what happens with teh original games when you try to play them?

Burned games work just fine from dvd drive as well as DVD movies. When I put an original in the evox dashboard says "loading" then goes right back to the dashboard.....i have tried several games with the same result. Do I need to "lock" the HD?
