Not on this planet!
Couple of things...
what version of Forza do you have NTSC or PAL?
what do you have EVOX game region set to? AUTO/DEFAULT/PAL/NTSC?
What version Box do you have
Is it NTSC or PAL box?
Is it your origional game you are loading to HD or a torrented/NG RIP?

No matter where the game come from Rather it is a orginal or a rip ( that is illeagl) you will have to find the default.xbe on the net or edit it yourslef. The game will not just copy to harddrive and work!! They have implented a little bit diffrent secruity thaat is each fixed with the patch . Hope this helps

Not true. I ripped it using DVD2Xbox without any problems.

Do us all a favor and don't try and edit any default.xbe files...


You sure you have enough room on the drive? How many games do you have on there?

well guys I am glad some of you are not having any trouble but alot of the noobs use slayers to install everything and that version of slayers has yet to rip that game and have it playable. I have tried to rip it on 3 xbxes i own off a retail disk i own and none of them would rip it and make it playable with out the xbe patch. I guess its just my disk or version of dvd2xbox but it would not work for me.

Get the latest version of DVD2Xbox, and give that a try.
