Xbox 360 can't read perfectly fine games

Happens to my old Xbox 360. Unplug the power cord from the wall and leave it overnight, then plug back in in the morning and see if it works. (If it doesn’t unplug again this time only for 5 minutes )

1 if you bought from ebay you got scamed 2 less likely you got scamed on your "new games"

try and save the game to your Xbox360 harddrive(HDD) and then run it off that?

HI...
Contact Microsoft tech support

There's phone number there too if you dont find your problem listed

same thing happened to me. the disk is basically garbage. there must be a scratch or chip on the cd thats y it wont play.

Well I just recently purchased an XBOX 360 about a month ago form gamestation(used). It was giving me disc read errors every time iplayed it, but i opened it up and cleaned my TOSHIBA drive and wiped everything down with a cotton bud, and then lubed up all of the parts which needed to be.

and that fixed my problem

please rate

u should find out if its chiped or not chiped 360s dont play live cds unless they r burned

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.
