Notes: Check your settings, this version will reset all settings back to their defaults On the Image Tools Tab if you use the "Image Browser" it will first check if there is a dvd in the current selected drive. If there is a dvd in the drive then that is what will be displayed. You can use the menu in the Image Brower to close that and open an iso file. ================================================================================= Xbox Backup Creator v2.4 Build:0225 by Redline99 Added - Image Browser/Extractor Right mouse click in Tree/List for extraction options Use File menu to load an iso image from HDD Added - Region Checking xbe/xex Added - Support to burn image in ImgBurn (Currently doesn't get correct exit code?)

This should greatly improve the process. See Note * Added - Feature to save the XDVDFS structure to a comma delimited text file (mostly for research) Added - XDVDFS File system entry details (if a read error is in the file system area) Added - Feature that if user selects to fill read errors with zeros, but a read error occurs in file system data they will get prompted again as this could be a media defect error in game data and shouldn't just be filled with zeros. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * This uses a technique I called the "Sector Mapper" It uses the XDVDFS to read only the data referenced by the file system. In theory this should do two things: 1. Speed up the process by not trying to read the Security Place Holders 2. Speed up the process by only reading the data, not the entire disk. Please be aware that although this has been tested and is working the concept has not proven itself on a large scale. It currently does not work on Xbox 360 disks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Xbox Backup Creator v2.0 Build:0100 by Redline99 Initial Release ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hardware Requirements: Processor: Something within the last 3 years should be fine. I use a P4 3GHz with 1GB Ram Ram: The application currently used a 20MB write buffer, shouldn’t be a problem on current machines. Drives: A DVD+R Double Layer burner that supports a Buffer Underrun Technology. PC DVD Samsung SH-D162C with Kreons modified firmware (PC DVD Drive)** Xbox 360 Samsung TS-H943A with Xtreme compatible firmware, v1, v2 or v3. Xbox 360 Hitachi GDR-3120L with Xtreme compatible firmware with OPA v2.1*** OS Requirements: Windows NT platform with NTFS file system (because file sizes are 4+ GB) Windows XP SP2 is preferred, Vista has not been tested. If there is enough interest I may support Win9x by way of creating file sets within FAT32 limits. An ASPI driver will also be required. (ASPI already supported) Application Use: It should be pretty straight forward. Read your disk then write it to a blank DVD+R DL. Since this application is not multi-threaded, please do not disturb it while writing. After inserting a disk it may take a few seconds for it to be recognized. If it does not populate and enable the buttons after more than 30 seconds press CTRL-R to force a refresh. Remember, you must use one of the supported drives for READING Xbox disks. The drive will ALSO need the modified firmware. :) A lot of people were confused about this. You cannot just pop the Xbox disk into your burner to make a backup. This app doesn't support making a backup of a backup. Find another way, its easy. If your burner doesn't automatically set the book type to DVD-ROM for DVD+R DL then you must set the booktype before writing using the appropriate bitsetting app for your burner. Some of the newer Xbox drive firmwares get past this requirement. Samsung - Use Xtreme v3.1 or later Hitachi - Use the MediaCheck patch by Geremia Known Issues or Errors: If your disk isn't recongized with in 20 seconds, press CTRL-R to force a refresh May have display issues with some locale settings, not really tested. Writing doesn't support all burners, I hope that it has improved though! Session Fixation Errors are usually due to media and/or burner firmware. Optimum Power Calibration failures are usually due to low quality media. Invalid Write Address failures are usually due to low quality media. You may get a DeviceIoControl error with a Sense error of "0/00/00", I don't have a good answer but, some people have reported success by reinstalling updated Sata drivers. Also another method that may work is to use the Nero ASPI driver instead of SPTI. During the write initialization you may encounter "Power On, or Bus Device Reset occurred" I have not been able to figure out the root of this or the proper method of recovery. If you happen to know, please fill me in on the secret. :) Supported Backup Images: Xtreme style disk images version 1-3. wxRipper support may be added at a later date. The application will only build version 3 style images. I don't see the need to add the complication of the version 1,2 types. This is because the data is outside the readable LBA range to the Xbox and the older firmwares will just not use the extra DMI and PFI sectors. The Security Sector is in the same position across versions. Xbox Versions: Xbox 360: Xbox 360 disks and Xbox One disks! Xbox One: Not supported, previous version was making the ISO incorrectly and I haven't had time to fix yet. Hopefully next major release. Support: I will do my best to keep current and add requested features, feel free to contact me with ideas, compatibility issues or bug reports. I ask of you to please not use the forums to talk about your adventures in pirating. Specifically the forums at www.xboxhacker.net and www.xbox-scene.com. My personal belief is that making a backup of property you purchased is within your rights. Of course not everyone shares this opinion and you should use common sense and do not distribute or download backup disk images. You can view Microsoft's statement on piracy at the link below. http://www.microsoft.com/piracy/default.mspx Installation: This application requires the Visual Basic 6 sp6 runtimes, included if you need them These is also a dependency on MSCOMCTL.OCX, included in the msi setup package. Hopefully you can just run the exe! Use the Setup Package if you need it. If you are upgrading from a previous version, you should be able to just copy the executable and run it. If you decide to run the installer, uninstall the previous through Add/Remove Programs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some shortcut keys: CTRL-TAB = Switch to next tab CTRL-L = Show/Hide Log CTRL-C = Cancel current operation CTRL-R = Refresh Disk Information ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Provided you do it my way and your hardware is compatible! :) ** Pre Version .80 of Kreon's Samsung SH-D162C doesn't completely support the Security Sector extraction, but the application will detect the capability when it is available. By the way... Good job Kreon! Also note that .80 has a bug that prevents the SS from working on a Xbox One. You can manually fix it or better yet use Kreon's .81 version. *** Currently, the Hitachi GRD-3120L is not capable of viewing the game partition without a hardcoded firmware patch. Hopefully someone will create proper support for unlocking.

Does Anyone Know how I Can Back Up Copy Protected Games? Everywhere I Look I Keep Running In To "Easy Backup Wizard" Or "Game Copy Wizard™ V2.3"
