I think what he did was a straight disc copy of an xbox disc, which won't work, he said he made a backup just like his dvd or music or whatever... you need to do some reading mate but to put it in a nut shell, retail xbox discs can only be read by an xbox, xbox uses fatx not fat32 or ntfs etc... so in order to make a backup you need a modded box, why you ask, so you can ftp (use flashfxp) the contents of the disc from the xbox hd or the xbox dvdr to your pc hd, there you use something like craxtion to create and patch the file to an ISO, then you use something like nero6 or alcohol120% to burn the image (ISO) to a dvd-r (-r because all xbox's read -r, only thompson drives read +r), or if the game comes in under 700mb u can burn to a cdrw...

If making a backup of an xbox game was as simple as a disc copy where would all the fun be.....
