If your Xbox 360 will not read disc this is not normally anything wrong with the drive but more that the drive has shut down because of the heat it is taking.

You will need to fix it you can do with a good guide or you can send it in and they will fix it for you.

SOURCE: My xbox 360 won't read my disks

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.

SOURCE: My Xbox 360 Won't read, not one disk.

Lens cleaners don't work very well . they tend to smear the
dust and dirt around in side the drive.

I have yet to find a dirty laser in an xbox 360 . This is
due to the high rpm of the drive sweeps most dust
away from the lens

It is more likely the laser is weak or dead .
The cost for a replacement is around 80.00 . 35.00 if you do
it yourself . feel free to email me if you have any questions.

Hi there abtorres97

What to do when your Xbox Has problems with reading disks and you have tried cleaning the disk.

This does not mean your Disk Drive needs replacing more often than not it just needs the laser to be readjusted.

Option 1

You can send this off to Microsoft if your still in warranty because it is included in there free fixes so they will do the collecting for you, fix it and return the Xbox to you, all for free, but it will take 4-6 weeks.

Option 2

If you are out of warranty its the same process as above but its $130 in cost

Option 3

now a new Disk drive would cost around $75 for a compatible one and you may need some one to fit it at a cost as well.

Option 4

What I recommend is a XBOX REPAIR GUIDE that will show you the simple steps yourself, you will be up and running again in less than an hour and the cost is far less than option 2 & 3

Good Luck

Why won't my xbox read the game?

IMO Never Use a cleaning disc for Gaming consoles. Which Xbox 360 do you have? Is it the Older Model or newer one? You can Try Blowing into Your Xbox disc drive. Is your xbox up to date,you can unplug your xbox 360 and from the wall and the Xbox. Wait 25 Mins and Try again.

What do you do when your xbox won't read disks?

The main problem might be a big problem with the disk tray. There might be an faulty wire that has lost connection and if your disk wont event turn on, there might be a problem with the power supply that supplies the cd tray. If the disk opens and closes but doesnt read and wont say tray is in and keeps saying open tray, there might be a small fracture on some of the wires or there is something wrong with the motherboard of the xbox 360. The best way is to buy the warrenty now and send it to the xbox 360.

Xbox 360 will not read a disk. It says

It's a loose cable. Strip down your xbox 360 until you can see your DVD drive. Then replug all cables. It should work again. Otherwise it may be the lens.

My Xbox 360 is not reading disks

If your Xbox 360 is not reading discs this is because the receptors on the back of the drive have overheated, you need to stop this.

You can do it yourself or send it in
