Game not downloading/installing

@M Bierce

You can't play a disc game while installing another disc game

But you can play a disc game while another is downloading, play a download while installing a disc or play a download while installing another download.

I can understand that part. but an install is pretty much the entire game except the disk is required. most of my games will start up. the disk is still good enough. if I were to borrow a friends game and install it I can still use my scratched game to play.
I wouldn't mind if I still need the disk because all the Xbox needs to play an installed game is to recognize the disk

no they don't

games on demand is not the same as disks

you can install the game but you have to have the dvd inside the Drtive to play it

or purchase the games on demand version



if they do what you suggest that would invite piracy



that is why the DISK is still required

Yes, you can borrow a friends and then used a damaged disc for recognition. Just be careful, you don't want the disc to further break and damage your console.

I do this Two Worlds II. My disc has the infamous circle scratch/burn, but it still plays because I had it installed.

It runs into the occasional disc read error, but works for the most part.

try to sign out of account, then do a full computer shut down, then turn back on , sign into account, then start the xbox live app, now try to start game.
