I have tried DVD+R and DVD-R discs and they can't be read by the original 1.0 Xbox that I have. It is a thomson optical drive in it.
All the games that came with the unit still work OK. Too bad none of those games are the ones that can be used with the savegame hacks.
I have tried high quality DVDs, and cheap CMC junk, both +R and -R, and even CD-R and CD-RW and DVD+RW as well. Nothing works
I have even tried to burn the discs at 2x. Still don't work.
I have tried both the lite and full version of AID, and I tried both with and without the 1GB dummy files.
Any ideas on how I get this blasted optical drive to read DVD+R or -R DVDS?
The only reason I wish to do this is so I can install AID, and then unlock the HD, and probably install one of the new frontends.
I know HDs don't last forever, and I would hate to see this unit die all because of a dead HD.

Correct me if I'm wrong but from reading your post it doesn't sound like your xbox is modded
For discs always use dvd-r never + fuji is best and use imgburn at 4x for the burn.
If I am correct on no exploit is installed download sid5 pimped final from the ftp server and use it to mod

You are correct, I don't got a modded xbox.
However, I have tried fuji, maxell, verbatim, crappy memorex (most of those are taiyo yuden ones), and they just won't read at all on the thomson drive.

None will work till it is modded. Since you dont have the games to do the exploit, you need to download SID5 Pimped Final from the USA FTP Server and follow this tut http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-301.html to mod your XBOX. AID and other XBOX based installer discs are meant to be only used after the XBOX has been modded. The XBOX wont run unsigned code (anything other than retail games and cds/dvds) without being modded first.
