|
 |
I have been burning games without an issue and playing them, but when I try them on my friends Xbox they get a dirty disc error or just won't load. He has some games which don't work on another friends Xbox and they have the exact same mod chip. Is there a known variation with Xbox drives or is this a burning issue?

There are 3 types of xbox drives
Thompson, philips and samsung.
Thompson is the weakest for cd-r but reads some dvd+r and some dvd-r
Philips reads some cd-r, some dvd-r and some dvd+r
The new philips drive reads cd-r, dvd-r and dvd+r without issue
Samsung reads almost any cd-r, almost any dvd-r but no dvd+r
Easy now to sort it out.

Thanks for the info, is it simple to tell the difference between the new and old Phillips drive, i.e. a model number or date stamp?
Due you know if it is possible to buy these drives so I could simply replace them?
