XBox 360 mod

Anyone here mod 360's? My friend has a modded 360 and plays burned games. He just recently got on to play COD Black Ops and the disc, which he had been using for months, wouldn't work. He made a couple more copies using the same original file and had the same problem. I'm pretty sure the cause is a dashboard update he downloaded. Anyone else have any similar issues?

in short, yes. the mod he did modifies the dashboard. the dashboard is based on windows 2000, and when u update it, the firmware as well as software receives patches, updates, and a lot of rework. he will have to perform mod again, if it will even work. if he cant mod it again, he can reformat xbox and it will go back to original firmware.

Do you have the equipment to do this kind of thing yourself? I'm sure he wouldn't mind paying you, of course. I just trust you a hell of a lot more than some random dude off craigslist, which is where he normally runs for this kind of thing. I've already been screwed over by doing that.

well, id have to research it more, never modded, i know the basics of it, just is complex. nothing i would do couldnt be reversed if i didnt do it correctly.

btw, forgot to mention that the update only made COD unplayable. He's tried other burned games and they work just fine.

interesting... could be some new security shit.

Yeah, I was afraid of that.

if its only cod then it could be just a bad burn you said he used the same file, just different disc. i would say try a new file and if that doesnt work my brothers friend could probably reformat it and fix it for you.

when he burns it make sure that he burns at a slow speed. just cuz his cd drive can burn at 32x doesnt mean he should. have him burn it at 8x or less. good quality burn.

Whats up everyone. I have been searching the neckbeard forum for some type of "General" posting section of some sort. I mod Xboxs, build computers and other stuff like that. I have actually made a forum and need some help over there. If your interested give me a holler at forum.superroot-techs.com
