    Default xbox360 Burning Noobie :(

    Hello I'm Damian, ill admit I'm an Xbox360 idiot.

    However I'm quite computer literate,

    Here's my issue that i hope someone can help me with.

    I have ABGX360 and a modded xbox drive and ImgBurn.

    I'm also using DUAL LAYERED DVD+R 8X 8.5GB 240MINS.

    Im trying to burn Forza Motorsport 4 however it says the game is about 200MB bigger than the DVD (And thats just Disc 1...)

    How would i go about burning this game since its not going to work without the other 200MB im guessing...


    Thanks any help is appreciated greatly.

    It gives the option on ImgBurn to either, Over burn or stop when the disc is full...?
    Could i get away with a 200MB overburn?

    There is an option to truncate the images, which isn't really advised as the extra 200MB of data doesn't get burned meaning the discs are NOT safe for Xbox Live.

    Some games don't play when burned truncated as well, Gears of War 3 is one of them.

    EDIT: The best way to burn 360 ISOs is with a "Burner Max" flashed LiteOn iHAS drive. I really haven't been keeping up with the 360 scene all that much, so I only know little bits of information here or there. So I'd highly recommend googling. Also Burner Max only works with iHAS drives and Verbatim DVD+R DL.

    Forza 4 might be one of the games that doesn't work when truncated.

    LiteOn iHAS is a DVD-RW drive, the burner max is the firmware you flash to it to allow it to burn the extra data onto the discs.

    Forza 4 is only like £15 second hand nowadays...

    You're from Newcastle? Small world. Cash Converters in town had it about a month ago for £15.
