    I have successfully burned a number of backup games to DVD and played them with no problem (thanks Larry for your help!!) But I have an ISO that is a CD image -- when burned the XBox (softmodded with EvoX) says "no disc". However, Nero won't let me burn it to a DVD (it ejects the disc and asks for a CD).

    So, is there a way I can convert the CD image to a DVD image? Or is there a way to get my XBox to read the CD?

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Thank you very much for the reply. I found DVD Decrypter on this site and it's no longer available. (http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_decrypter.cfm ) Instead I tried ImgBurn and it worked like a charm.

    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! :)

    That's what we're here for....good to see you got things worked out. I'm sure dvd decrypter is hosted free on other sites,for the record.....

    Which DVD drive do u have?

    CD-R really doesn't work on most unless the DVD drive has been tweaked. Try burning it to CD-RW.

    I usually take a bunch of small ISOs and burn em to a multisession disc with Craxtion 4.

    the samsung plays cd-r as well as some of the newer philips drives....other than that you might have to tweek the pots a bit to get the drive to read them.
