my xbox came with a ben-q but that broke so i spoofed the dvd key to a Samsung drive.

im using verbatim disks, but retail disks dont work ether. non XGD3 Games work perfect.

i have a asus 24b3st version c using the payload tool.

the disks work on my friends flashed xbox.

The problem is that the Samsung drives are not capable of reading the XGD3 copy protection schema and therefore ignore it, but your console originally came with a drive capable of reading it (the BenQ) and therefore expects that data to be there. Blakey is absolutely right, you sh be replacing like for like when it comes to 360 drives, but if you have another XGD3 capable drive (LiteOn or Hitachi 78/79) it couldbe spoofed to work.

The best advice has already been provided through - fix or replace the BenQ.
