Xbox 360 Not Reading Disks

You should totally get one of those lens cleaning disks and use it on your xbox. if that doesn't work contact me with specifics. K

Are the disks scratched? If yes, that is why.
If they are not scratched, and the games are installed to your hard drive, it may be a problem with the installation, you should uninstall the game then reinstall it to your hard drive.
Otherwise, there may actually be a problem with your Xbox 360 Console.

Sounds like your cd drive is not reading the discs properly. If that's not the problem, then you have a scratched disc on your hands.

Do what I did. Go to sellitbroken.com and sell your scratched/non-working game to them. They will give you good money for it.

if youve come from a different country with youre xbox it may have trouble reading the games from the new country!

your graphics processor IC chip needs its solder joints reflowing, and the heatsink re securing.

This will solve the problem.

this usually happens to bad/damaged/dirty game disks. try cleaning the disks. if that doesn't work, contact microsoft via xbox.com/support.

try using a disc cleaner in u xbox lense is dirty most likely

Hi,
Dependant on the age of the xbox.
Heres a couple of things to try.
1:) try a music CD.
2:) Try a laser head cleaner. ( usually the CD type ) some cleaner disks have a few small brushes on that wipe over the laser head. ** there are several causes for the 360 not reading Game-Disks**
3:) if you have the backwards compatable xex file from microsofts web-site. ( enabling you to play an official XBOX1 Or original xbox game. Try 1 of these, if the standard xbox game works, then the problem may be with the laser unit itself.
i.e standard xbox games are single layer, 360 games are dual layer. when reading a dual-layer disk the laser power output is increased, by the reader.

If you need any more help, regarding this.

feel free to mail me.

Buy a new Xbox 360

use the towell trick! Wrap the 360 in 2 towells turn on and leave running for 15 minutes. It gets very hot but after the 15 minutes turn off the console and power it back on again and it should work. Dont know if this is a permanent fix but my 360 hasnt broken again so far. Dont ask me how but it works, google it if you like. It also cures the 3 red lights problem.
