One of the main questions in this forum is "why wont my xbox read the certain disc I burned?" There's two ways to get an answer to this, check your drive, then check the media it's able to read. How? Well curtosy of DJB's AID manual, and the beta testers here at HQ, this table has been drawn up. I've cut it out of the manual and posted it here. So check this and try different media if your box isn't reading discs.

Cool.
Just remember that graph shown above is a little old now, but hopefully it will be still reliable.

Good job on the post. That can solve a lot of issues before people start posting. I'm not sure if this is sticky, but it should be in this thread. Thanks again. _________________ XBOX v1.6c

Yup it's sticky.
Just to note before anyone has a go at us for this, the information was collected from xbox-linux a while ago.

ya, uh, so, I tried to put the copyed dvd-r in my drive (I have a samsung), and it still poped up with a mesage saying that it still couldn't read the dvd. what i did is I downloaded a "all in one" NES, SNES, Genesis, Nintendo64, and it didn't work. I don't know if using nero 9 effects if it will work. It says "burn image to disk using Nero or Alcohol 120%. run default.xbe from the xbox file browser." could someone please help me out here!!!!

You burnt the .ISO file? Did you burn in ISO mode? If you put the disk into your computer, does it show a .iso file? _________________ Hotswap|HDD Upgrade|X3 Guide

he downloaded the the roms from the net and burned it to the disc and hopefuly waiting it reads and play them...
what you need to do is drag each of those games to its correct emulater .... for example.. n64 007 goldeneye would go on n64 emu/roms / n64 007 godeneye goes here.... somthing like that... _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

No, I'm a nube at this and I'm kinda searching in the dark. Where do I need to go or what do I need to do to make the disk work Also, I was reading something about 'action replay'. What is that exactly

i know u guys have the charts and that on which drives read what but i was wondering if anyone has burnt a cd-r of the softmod installer deluxe or auto-installer deluxe iso disc and had it work with a samsung drive
and have any of u guys ever had a problem with ur disc tray not opening after u opened ur box? mine does this thing and i have to give the top of my xbox a hard tap sometimes to get the tray to open- i losened the bolts thinkin they were to tight but it still did it afterwords and whoever it was talking about the emulators did u just leave them in zip or rar format when u put them on ur xbox i wanna get into that for goldeneye(best n64 game ever)and is it pretty easy to setup ur xbox controller for those emulators?

GOldeneye will NOT run on a modded xbox, just to let ya know that. I have a Samsung 616t DVD-ROM drive (PC drive modded to be an xbox drive). yes, it still sticks. Try loosening the screws on the dvd case, and also make sure the DVD bezel has ample clearance. And with a samsung, you should have no problem running a CD-R. _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."
