Assuming as you say that you own that game, use DVD2Xbox and let it send the dvd to the hdd. It will eliminate the "copy protection" and allow you to play the game from the hdd. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

to explain a bit further... The 11MB .vob's that you see when you put it into your computer are actual DVD video files. If you put the xbox into your DVD player, or use Windows Media Player to launch the DVD you'll see some spiffy little animations, then it yells at you that it's not a DVD movie, it's in fact... OH! and Xbox game!
This was a smart move on M$'s part because it keeps us from finding easy was to "decrypt" the disc as a game to our HDD's, forcing us to use our Xboxes os the "Encryption removers".
Some games that don't have this MPEG_2 folder or whatever it is, are rumored to be able to be decrypted using DVDDecrypter (perhaps a Burned game, maybe?) but it's only a rumor on my part as I have not yet tried it... Don't need to, Qwix and my Xbox are all I need. (Open up qwix, point it to the DVD drive or the folder that holds the game and tell it to make the ISO, good to go). _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."
