Backup discs discs don't work on newly flashed LiteOn

Hi -
Hoping someone can offer some advice here, I'm out of ideas.
I had an xbox 360 with a flashed Sammy MS25, where all my Verbatim MKM-001-00 disc backup games worked fine, and then the console RROD'd on me. So bought a refurbed xbox that has a LiteOn (a 74850c that I understand is now a 02510C with the 14719 dash update). I successfully flashed it using a CK3i and a CK3 Probe 3. I then tested out my game backup discs, and many don't work (says either unreconized disc, or open tray), but some actually do. Someone recommended I take the ISO of one of the bad ones, run it through abgx, then reburn. So I grabbed the Elder Scrolls: Skyrim iso (which is an XGD3 game), and ran it through abgx. I'm not terribly familiar with abgx, and used it here for the first time, but noteworthy things I saw was:
- It lists PAL in white letters, and NTSC/U in green letters (I purchased the xbox in the US, so not sure if any of this matters)
- It mentions that it had to fix the topology data
- Everything else looked OK, and at the end it said "Game partition CRC matches the verified ini!" and "AutoFix was successful!"
So I verified the .dvd file had Layerbreak=2133520, and burned to the same Verbatim MKM-001-00 type disc with IMGBURN 2.5.6 at a speed of 2.4x as I did before. When checking the game in the console, one time it said "unrecognized disc", and a reboot of the console yielded "open tray"...so it's not working.
I reran the iso through abgx again, and this time all the checks came up green and as far as I can, everything looks fine with the ISO.
Does anyone have any ideas by chance on why I'm unable to play the games that used to work fine on my Sammy drive?
