Okay, so the short version, starting with the backstory..
=================
The Backstory:
=================
I have a 1.6 Xbox that I originally softmodded. . I upgraded the original 10gb to a 40 and then eventually upgraded that to a 100gb years ago but it was time to replace that one. I previously kept games on F:\
I used my original eeprom and created a new xboxhdm to replace the drive with a 500gb, then booted AID 4.4 and used one of the softmod installers to replace my old one so I could get a proper G drive with the rest of the diskspace.
(I used the softmod that lets you boot into the original dash if the tray is open - not the stealth version - in hindsight, I didn't really need access to the original dash, in case that's important)
Before I upgraded, I FTP'ed all my games from the HD to the PC (for the ones I didn't already have my iso backup for).
After the upgrade, I have an F:\ drive where I now keep applications, and a 350gb G:\ where I moved the games to.
=================
The problem now
=================
Some (not all) of the games I transferred back don't work anymore. Some of the games I managed to dig out my old backups from, a couple of those I was able to rip from the original disks (where the disks weren't too badly scratched). But some won't work at all, or freeze up at the start menu. I've also started using the component cable and running on an hdtv since the upgrade (in case that's important).
=================
The affected titles are:
=================
JSRF - My original backup shows garbled screen like it does on the hd
The Warriors - dirty disk error
XIII - Freezes at the loading screen
Project Gotham Racing - Loading screen doesn't go away
Burnout3 Takedown - Freezes at the start screen
Halo2 - Freezes at the logo before the start option
GTA dual pack - Only half the screen shows people, the other half looks unrendered
X-men Legends 2 - Freezes at the start screen after button press
Crimson Skies - Freezes somewhere before the loading screen
Issues Resolved:
True Crime LA/NY - Had errors saving, fixed this by deleting all saves on drive
Even with the smaller drive, I had ripped all of these to HD on F at one point or another (except for Xmen Legends 2), but some work perfectly fine on G and others just crap themselves. Does anyone know of a way to fix this?
Thanks

Try clearing the contents of the E:\Cache folder. _________________

Thanks! That did the trick for all the ones that were hanging. Much appreciated.
