Quick to Judge GTA San Andreas prob

[Punky]

Cyclops is running the NTSC version. I was trying to illustrate that the problem was occuring with non-pal releases as well.

Funny enough, I went home last night to try some things out - nadda. Couldn't get it to work.
In fact, if I used XBox Xplorer and browsed to the backup disc, it wouldn't run either, it would only run if the game started with the xbox booting.
I thought that was rather..... interesting...

This is something that I have never seen before.

It's such a pain to play from disc, hopefully I'll come across a fix somewhere (although I doubt it).

GTA SA works great from HDD for me too... No problems whatsoever with my PAL version from HDD.
Backuped the disc using DVD2Xbox 0.6.7 and I can play the game just fine...

I was the one who closed that topic

Usually, when somebody states that they have a problem running from the HDD, then continues to state that he/she extracted the iso and sent it to their HDD (rather than using the original disk), it is more than likely that the original disk was not present. If you have a similar problem, feel free to make another post about it. I never banned talk of the game.

Hi Everyone,

It was me who posted the original problem. I agree with what was said here I didn’t appreciate the accusation that I was using a pirate copy of GTA.

Anyway, the problem was easily solved thanks to other members informing me to change the region settings on Evox.

Again I’d like to thank everyone for there help in this matter

I usually copy my original games to the HDD because three reasons:

- quick access to the game (not to find the disc over the living room or where the hell was left the last night)
- to preserve the life of the dvd drive
- game experience a bit faster (in loading screens)
