Problem with xbox 360

My game has been going to the white screen a lot lately when I start to play a game. The one that says insert disk. Now it is taking forever to load a game and then some of the graphics are missing or it locks up. Do you have any suggestions?

With my xbox 360 as for instance last night i downloaded a new map for halo 3 and shortly there after i started to have issues of freezing the game would stop and lag and i would have a checkered screen come up where ever there was white.

If you have downloaded anything to your hard drive delete it it is probably a corrupted file. IE music game profiles pictures. anything that you have recently downloaded. if that doesnt work i would hope that its under warranty and microsoft can bite the bullet.

sb sounds like your system needs to be sent in if it is freezing on you and stalling then you are having General hardware failure. If it hasnt allready i am betting you will get the red rings soon. Contact MS and see what they can do for you. Hope this helps

I have never heard this issue before. You probably have a lager issue then what can be resolved here and might face future issue in the future. Is this the only game you are having issues with?

Seeing that you mentioned you have purchased a hard drive then I would recommend you install the game to your hard drive and try play after that. This will resolve any issues possably of your disk drive possably getting hung up during gameplay.

follow these instructions to get your game installed on your hard drive:

Install Xbox 360 games on your hard drive from a game disc Note Installing an Xbox 360 game on a hard drive requires between 4 and 8 gigabytes (GB) of free disc space.

Insert the game disc into the disc drive.

Note After you insert the disc, the default option is to automatically start the game. If the game starts, exit the game, and return to the Xbox Dashboard.

From the Xbox Dashboard, go to My Xbox.
Select the game you want to install.
Press Y on your controller.
Select Install to Hard Drive.

A progress indicator appears while your game is being installed on your hard drive.

Notes

Installing an Xbox 360 game might take several minutes.
Multidisc game? Install each disc to your hard drive.

Every time i turn my xbox on it goes to this screen saying to insert updated disk why is it doing that??

If your Xbox 360 will not play your games this is because of the sensors on the back of the drive overheating it is not normally the laser.

Luckily you can fix this yourself and get back to your games and to do this you need the proven Xbox 360 Repair guide.

Or you can send it in and they will fix it for you the repair will take about 4 weeks.

This is getting to be a more common error of late.

Assassin's Creed 2 won't load on Xbox 360

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.
