Guys have 2 xbox 360's one 120 GB elite Jasper version with liteon drive and old 360 Falcon with Hitachi drive...both have been soft modded successfully and running both AC-B as well as NFS-HP...
for all the xbox 360 owners with Hitachi drives....
good news... no need to change drives and spend Rs. 2000/- + to change FW to LT+, to be able to play Brother Hood or NFS-Hot Pursuit...
This is tried and tested on my own Xbox 360... reading threads i came to the understanding that Hitachi drives don't support AP 2.5 checks, so i updated my dashboard using the Assassins Creed Brother hood game thinking i would be able to play it... as soon as it got upgraded i got the disk read error..thinking that i f ed my console...i did some more reading and found a way to make this all work...
"All you need to do is download the patch from the xbox website
http://support.xbox.com/en-us/pages/...ates.aspx#copy
unzip to usb flash drive ,put it in your 360 & power on.
It seems that the update on ac-b disk is not full,once you have installed the one from memory stick skip the tutorial & try your assassins creed disk again.
Vollah.. now it works...
Plug your USB flash drive into a USB port on your computer.
- Download the linked file.
- Click Save to save the console update .zip file on your computer.
- unzip the files directly on to a flash drive formated FAT32.
- Unplug the USB flash drive from your computer.
- Plug the flash drive into a USB port on your Xbox 360 console.
- Restart the console.
- When the console restarts, the installation program starts automatically. Select Yes when you are prompted to update the new console software
when your donethe game will start without the disk read error!!" courtesy to xbox360iso.com
