Its at the top 0.o use a dvd-r or a dvd-rw, you may be able to use it on live if your hotswap maybe >.<


haha just kidding you can't yay just for home use on your modded xbox not live compatable, you can play mods though if you want to and not get onto live with it, its a non-modder non-hotswap way

i dont know, he said you cant but i think you might, im going to try it our right now, and my friend on xbl said that you can so, i guess ill just find out then wont i?

well, if you have a modded dash you can just ftp the halo 2 disk to your computer, mod the maps, make it an iso, and ftp it to the game folder of your xbox and just start it up from the modded dash.

All you have to do is HotSwap to play them on live. If you don't know what HotSwapping is, then you DON'T NEED to mod old maps on live. =D

You also need to add:
Once you open DVD Decrypter > click on mode > ISO > write

Your welcome every1.

So yeah, I just did everything you said but when I put my Dvd-rw into my xbox, and I got the the evolution x dashboard, it says there is no disc in it. Also, when I launch yelo trainer, I don't get the option "halo 2". What did I do wrong?
