X-box 360 will not read disc

If you have the new kinect xbox 360 dashboard and you cannot get your xbox 360 console to read your game discs or DVDs, you are not alone. An update that was recently applied through Xbox Live makes your discs unreadable.
Remove the update by navigating to:
System Settings->Memory->STOP HERE!
You should see your Hard Drive highlighted, if not move to it and then enter this on your controller:
X,LB,RB,X,LB,RB,X
Delete System Update will appear, make sure there is no media in your disc drive and select YES. You system will restart and appear to hang DO NOT TURN IT OFF OR MESS WITH IT!
After a couple minutes your system will start and you should be able to play discs again.

you can call 18004myxbox to get a free repair if the waranty is not expired

type it in you tube

its called the circle of death. the biggest problem with xbox.
everytime the unit is moved or bumbed the discs get the circles.
suggestion is to always take out the games when done playing.
try not to move the unit with discs inside it.

Yes! you can contact Mircrosoft, the number can be found on the box that your 360 came in... call them and let them know that your Xbox no longer reads disks and they will send you a box in which you can send them your Xbox and they will repair it and send it back to you Free of Charge! It takes a few weeks to a month to get your 360 back, but it's worth the wait when it's working perfect again!

Hope this helps :)

I had a similar problem with the 360. I had the red ring of death. You can send the console in by calling the help line for xbox.com. They will send you a box and you will have to send it back to them. It is free. No receipt needed.

Similar problem here. Worked fine last night. This morning...every disc put in gets you a "unplayable" response. Does play DVDs though. Weird. Called xbox and they are sending us a box for repair. This is the second time sending it in. We had the ring of death crap before and had to send it in. It was in repair when Halo 3 came out. My son was having fits not being able to play it.

xbox is not on the top of my list as being a good, reliable gaming system.

call 1-800-4myxbox and explain your issue they will help you and if no solution is found you will send in your xbox for a new xbox

Did you try using a cd lens cleaner in the XBox 360 dvd drive? Check the cds that they are not scratched, and you could have your son try the discs in another XBox 360.
