well if its throwing errors with the scratchless disc and the DL from the same disc does the same thing it could be corrupted info on the disc itself ...try using it in another console or just trade it in for a fresh disc ...reason i say is this has happened many of times with freezing not reading and ect. on all sorts of discs on xbox....and a fresh copy fixed it right up lol GL man hope it helps

Is your 360 new or old? Mine has been giving me some freezing of late and I get that same message on most installed games (even if they work fine uninstalled). I had been thinking getting a new 360 would be the best option, but I'm not going to pull the trigger on that just yet.

Your hard drive could be going bad. I have a bum 120gb hard drive that lasted me 2 years but now it makes 2 of my games freeze. Forza Motorsports 3 and Fallout 3. But after transfering all my content and doing a license transfer to my new Xbox 360 Halo Reach S console I haven't had much problems besides with Fallout 3 GOTY. 50 hours+ worth of work down the drain thanks to my falty old hard drive.
