just got my xbox back after having it chipped, tried a backup dvd but this did not work, waiting for some back up games to arrive to try, can there be a reason why the back up dvd did not work? i heard it might be because of the media it is burnt on to, can anyone enlighten me please? :confused:

Thanks :tup:

It may be down to the media. Also, the chip might not be working properly, which chip is it? If it is the Matrix, and your games do not work, try reflashing it with EvoX 2.5.

stupid questions i know, but here goes...

have u got the dvd dongle and remote kit?

...or atleast dvdx2 on ur xbox harddisc??

...if not, then no dvd film, backup, or original will work!...so u'll have to wait for u backup games to test it m8

yes got the dvd dongle m8, normal dvd movies work fine, normal games work fine, just thought having had the chip installed you would be able to play both backup dvd movies and games

u can, it's just that u still need to use ur dongle/remote for dvdr films..unless u got dvdx2 on ur hdd, which, if u didn't know?...kinda emulates the dongle and lets u use ur xbox controller for the remote functions, but u gotta have it on ur xbox hdd...haven't used it cos, like u, i got the dongle/remote kit...if it don't work for u with dongle and remote then it may be a media issue...

hmmm...come to think of it, i'm sure my xbox played backup dvd films (malaysian silvers) with dongle/remote _before_ i modded it!

if u got a burner? and wanna try ur chip, go to xbox-scene, download a small app (any will do) ..and burn it to cdrw/dvdr/rw to test...

sorry m8, but i can't post any direct links, the mods will smack me!... check out the iso folder for a link to evox, download and burn it to cdrw or sommat
