    hi guys ive been using this forum for long time as an anomynous soul but now i need some help with a little prob, when backing up nfs carbon i get all files across, convert to iso alrite burn on to disc but when i go to use it it just comes up as all file names!!!
    so i then try again this time add the default.exe file into the file i transferred across from xbox and then convert to iso, all it does then is start to load but then just freezes on the xbox logo?? what am i doing wrong?? it must be just one simple thing but im stuck and reading other posts in here doesnt seem to solve the problem any ideas anyone??
    cheers

    if your burning it to a DVD-R then try to burn it to a +R, but as far as i know it works on -R's but not +R's.

    its just a bad burn ok....

    Use Nero as your iso burning program if u want i personaly becasue its easy to use...So Make sure that your burning speed is X4-X8 so it will come out good....

    nero did no good..... argggg....lol it transfers across ok converts to iso ok but just wont burn?? try it one way it just opens a bunch of files when launched, and if i add the data.exe file before converting to iso it launches but stops pretty much straight away??

    it sounds like you have made working copies before correct?

    I have NFS Carbon and it backed up just fine.
    should be no different from other games.

    Use Craxtion4 to rip the game from the original disc in the Xbox drive to the PC, then use it to take that folder and create an ISO from it.
    Then DVD Decrypter to burn it.

    Worst case you can always get a copy online and just download and burn the ISO.

    P.S., to use cration4 you need to have the .Net Framework installed on your PC. This is free software from Microsoft. Many people forget this and then try to install and use Craxtion4 only to find that it doesn't work. HJere is a link to .Net Framework
