Ok I have CD-Rs and DVD+RWs and neither of them will work on my xbox (Thompson Drive) so I can't load slayers AID or AID deluxe onto my xbox to get any info onto my xbox! Any suggestions?
Thanks _________________ .---------------.

DVD-R's tend to read alot better than the +R's for some reason.

There is a way to mod the laser in a thompson drive so it will read more types of data. Theres a tutorial somewhere. _________________

ive had success with dvd-r maxell on a thompson drive.
good thing is that these are the cheapest as well.
ive seen several xbox drives that will read dvd-r maxell and not dvd+r
