Explain in more detail, you need an XBOX compatible dvd for it to work, different drives read different media. There are four drives ever made so far. Philips, Thomson, Samsung, Hitachi, none is better than the other, you just need to find out what media yours reads.

Here's a diagram I made to find out what drive you have.

Then search for media compatibility on this site.

If this helps please click the FAR left icon at the left of my post to add to my rep. The one on the left, not the right. Thanks.

The game needs to be in it's folder (e.g: "Mortal Kombat Deception"), you can't just have the files on the root of your E drive. Try this if you haven't already.

Media means DVD+R's etc, Maplins.co.uk stock a load of DVD's. My thomson reads Sony 650mb 1-4x CD-RW, and TDK 4x DVD+R.

just did it like u said E:games/Mortal Kombat Deception but when i press it the evoX green loading thing shows up then i get kicked back to the menu still, dunno if i really did it right but if you could tell me where there are some tuts or something i would really appriciate it...maybe it could just be a minor problem or something.

Try xbox-scene.com for tutorials.

Where did you get the game from? Maybe some files are missing.

If I helped, please add to my rep.
