Bought a copy of someone on the forum and it freezes after a couple of minutes. Is it protected or could I get a m8 to copy it on different media and maybe get it working.
Thanks

your question can't help us answer it.
what media? what drive in the xbox? what dash you using? what chip/bios? need this kind of info on a question like that.

"your question can't help us answer it".

"Is it protected"

That looks plain enough to me m8.!

Technically all xbox games are protected. After a certain time period M$ implemented it, groups hacked it and made a dash that can overcome the protection.

So your answer is yes it is protected.

Thank you pepski. I wated a disc in the meantime copying the bugger only to find this one stops at exactly the same place. I wish these people that sell them would make sure they worked before sending them.

what chip have you
what BIOS have you

some of the newer games require the new BIOSes to work ie something like 4977/4976.02

so try up date your BIOS and it should solve your problem

which was MY question to hearts from the get. WHAT ARE YOU RUNNING!? that will help narrow the problem and rule out dodgy burns/media.

Lads unlike yourselves to me its just a games machine. I just checked where I bought it from I think its an Executer 2.2 pro. How would I go about flashing the bios?
Sorry I know nowt'.
Thanks for any help tho.

ok now we're getting somewhere.
if it's an x2.2 pro then there will be a printer type port on the back of the machine. you would link that to the lpt port on your pc and flash that way. www.xbox-scene.com and go to modchips and find the flashing instructions for it. really easy.
if it isn't a 2.2 pro then evox will be your flash utility of choice, also lots of tutorials on this as well. sorry i can't be more descriptive it's work time :)
