Xecuter 3 user for a few months... works great... BUT when I create backups for certain games I own, (like star wars: battlefront,) the game does not load. I use refurbished xbox version 1.0, x3, 1959, avalaunch... It starts loading for one second, (shorter than usual backups,) shows Star Wars: Battlefront with no icon, then reboots avalaunch. Any suggestions? I think the "refurbished" part is a new cd rom drive, the drive has worked for everything thus far. Thanks!

I've also got a v1.0 xbox and a legal backup of Star Wars: Battlefront which plays perfectly off dvd and hd.

It could be many things. What prog are you using to make the iso and what are you using to burn it? Also what type of media?

I personally use Craxtion 4 to patch the game and make the iso. Then I burn with Nero using Ritek dye media. Never had a coaster. My dvd drive is a Samsung which reads everything i've put in it.

I only have one game which I can't get to run now since I installed X3 chip - XIII. For some reason it wont boot from dvd or hd. It did work when I had a xecuter 1 and I tried it in another xbox fitted with X3 chip and it wont boot from that either. So i'm thinking it may be the 1959 bios.

Hope this is of some use!

What are you loading your backup off of? HDD or DVD? If DVD, what kind of DVD drive do you have in your xbox now. Try deleting/throwing away your current backup and copying the files from the origional again using DVD2XBOX. I assume you do have the origional DVD, because if you don't that would be piracy ;-)

If you are ripped it to the HDD, make sure you have the newest version of DVD2Xbox.

Older one worked fine for me, but it good to have the latest one anyway :)
