Backup with 111D and SH-D162C...Having problems

[mmaverick]

I have tried XBCr and Schtrom v3.1 to backup Gears, Project 8, and Dead Rising but all gave me the same error. It is basically not reading the security sector. I don't understand why this is happening because I made and image of Saints Row last week before I got these other games and my drive read it fine, I also made an image of Gears but I tried to burn it and it was not recognized by my x360. Is there something I can do to fix this?

i was having the exact same issue...make sure your sh-d162c is the master drive. then burn with imgburn.....no problems now. make sure you have the jumpers right on the drives...master for sh-d1... and slave for 111d.....if you have more ata (more than 2) available on your board put both as master

well i actually just restarted my computer and got it to read Gears and Tony Hawk but now it wont read Dead Rising. something about a bad sector and asks if i want to fill it with zeros.

The Kreon drives are very picky, the discs must be emaculate for the drive to read them properly. Try cleaning your disc.

I don't know how it worked but I guess the drive decided to read it all of the sudden. Freakin sweet stuff!

I had the same problem last night with 2 different games, one of which I had just just bought and unwrapped. The new DVD was flawless but it would lock up at 3.x% on the security sector. I rebooted a couple times, reseated all my power and IDE cables, then finally when that didn't work I shut the computer off for a few minutes and pulled the plug from the power supply. When I got booted it back up I was able to successfully backup both games. Weird.

Going along this line, I have a question. I just bought a Kreon drive this past week. I was thinking of buying an external enclosure for it, therefore making it a USB connection instead of the traditional IDE connection. Would this be a bad idea? I'm curious if I should simply have the Kreon in an IDE situation versus USB. i know this may sound like a really dumb question, but I'd rather seek out opinions that just assume one way or another.

Thats exactly what I'm doing right now, I have a laptop so when I got my Pioneer 111D I had to get an external enclosure in order to use it, and not that I got my Kreon drive just hours ago, I use the same enclosure for it also, so far so good, but I'll know fr sure in a few minutes when my first backup finishes burning.

Just make sure you use a USB 2.0 port.

Hmmm. Uusually, when I get this error, I just tell XBox Backup Creator to "unlock" the Kreon drive and it works perfectly.
