IGR / REGION problems.
Try disabling IGR and set the REGION to AUTO

games that use the clock for auto-saving need the clock to be set correctly to work. Try setting the clock if it is not.

The RETAIL one works fine off the harddrive. The fix you're talking about is for the Pirate version thats circulating.

Tut tut :cool:

I'm having the same problem. I've looked for the evox.ini file to edit if necessary but not finding it. Using Xiso to open ISO then extracted to seperate folder. Ran a search. It plays fine from disc but when I load to hard drive, back to dash!? I'm running an NTSC machine/game?

Well, I am going to close this topic as the original creater solved the problem.

Somebody mentions one thing about a fault in the pirate version, and all of a sudden it is allowed to be talked about? No.

If you have problems with the iso, do not extract it. Simply delete it and create a new backup, as it is probably a faulty iso. If you have the original game, you would not need to extract the iso and send it to your xbox HDD. You would be able to use the original disk and spend half as much time by doing so.

If your game cyclops[0], is indeed authentic, then use the original disk to copy to the HDD, not the backup. If it does not work, there is either a scratch on your disk or it is an xbox setting. This game does not require a new patch. Make sure the time is set correctly and delete all files in the x, y, and z directory. If you have are using pal on ntsc, make the setting in evox auto as that should do the trick.
