My xbox 360 model 1439 will not read the game disk. Could be due to the box being knocked over. How do I get at the DVD tray?

if it does this with all the disks then your drive is either 1.drive is bad 2.firmware is corrupt. i would assume that your drive is bad, unless you have tried to hack your drive firmware and corrupted it. if you did try and hack the drive send me an email at [email protected] and i can tell you how to reverse it.

Sounds like your laser has died, or your drives spindel motor not allowing the console to recognize any form of media.

We offer competitivley priced repairs and a 12 month warranty on all new lasers.

This is more than likely your laser that is dead and its possibly a samsung or hitatchi drive, be careful when
buying a new laser because there is a lot of dodgy ones around at the minute which can damage your machine or
at the very least will be inferior and not last long.

its very possible it could also be your logic board which is a controller that controlls your dvd drive and laser etc. if this is faulty (and im betting its a samsung) then you might have to replace. you can pick these up for swap with the one on your drive for around £10 and can be effective but i would also checj the drive belt and make sure that is tight and working ok and tha laser too.

if your 360 reads dvd's but not games it may be repairable but if it wont read anything then your better off replacing the laser. strip down the console and strip the dvd drive, take out the laser and look underneath it, it will have a code such as HD57 or something else, note that down. Visit ebay and search for the laser with the same code, buy it, fit it in and make sure you de-solder the static blob of solder before using it (search the net about this or ask the seller) and then try your machine again :)

Just keep closing and opening the tray, sooner or later it should read the disk.
