Is your
xbox360 having trouble
reading disc? In this guide I will provide some common solutions to help you fix your disc read issues.
1)Remove any memory devices or usb flash drives.
2)If the disc you are using is excessively scratched, this can cause the xbox to have trouble reading the disc. You can use a damp soft cloth to try and clean the disc. Grab the disc by the edges and using a soft damp cloth lightly wipe the disc from the center going outward.
3)Try removing your
Xbox hard drive and then play a disc. Turn off the console. Locate the hard drive on the top of your system(depending on how you have it positioned). Press the release button on the hard drive.
If your system can read disc without the hard drive attached then you may need to replace the drive.
4)Clear the
Xbox360 cache. Clearing the cache may remove updates to certain games. Keep this in mind.
Go to System Settings in the My Xbox menu. Select Memory, highlight your storage device and select Clear System Cache. Try and play the disc.
If after the above steps you are still having trouble. You may want to contact
Microsoft Xbox live support to have your system serviced. You can find the support information in the link below,

Sometimes this can happen if the laser is dead or if someone has tried to flash it and they have done it wrong. if no one has touched your dvd drive then it is more than likely a laser fault and this can easily be repaired by replacement parts from ebay etc.
