Part 7: Using XBOX Backup Creator to Rip Owned Xbox360 ISOs - How to get from knowing nothing to playing ISO files on a slim XBOX 360 working with XGD3 decryption

Part 7 – Using XBOX Backup Creator to Rip Owned Xbox360 ISOs

This is Part 7 of a 10 Part tutorial on the different aspects of playing backup ISO files on an XBOX 360. In Part 7, I will explain how to use Xbox Backup Creator once the previous 6 steps have successfully completed.

NOTE: This will not work unless you have the 0800v3 firmware installed on your XBOX360 DVD Drive. It will not work with a non-XBOX360 Drive, a drive that does not have 0800v3 firmware (will to a point, but won’t support the XGD3 security), or any other methods not outlined in this guide. If it does, I haven’t personally verified it, so if you are still following this guide, you should probably look elsewhere as it’s likely not for you.

 

The Fun I didn’t have!

So I ran into this issue after flashing where my XBOX Backup Creator kept graying out the “START” and Drive Tools. Just like it wasn’t there. I found that I had this drive (ZEVGPKL LYZG52FOX). It wasn’t my DVD Drive, because it was tagged as a Blueray. So after many hours of reading, researching, testing, flashing, unflashing, reflashing, returning drives, going insane, loosing my mind… I think you get the idea, I ran into this one post that said to move the port, which I had done a few days ago and didn’t work. So I replaced my cable and used yet another port that hadn’t been used (Lucky I had 6). It worked just fine, the drive showed up as a PLDS DG-16D2S Drive

Highlighted is the wrong one? No clue what this is!

I actually Rt. Clicked on the ZEVGPKL drive and Disabled it.  Also, I had to physically connect the SATA cable from one port on my Motherboard to another.  No clue why, but I did find some forums discussing this, something about not being on the same port as where you flashed it.  Regardless I moved it to another free port, and scanned for Hardware changes.

3. Go to Read

4. Start the process

5. Wait

6. Wait..

7. Wait longer, I’m unsure at this point, if you should just not do anything on your computer while this runs. Probably depends on the computer, this one should be able to handle multi-tasking
