I better get it to work otherwise im buying a steering wheel and forza 2 and dirt instead Sad

Edit: I looked around on the internet for some answers and i got some things to try so I'll update what happened.

To Try: Wrap It In A Towel | Put a bit of carboard in the disc tray and move it around | Clean the Laser inside the xbox.*| loose washer*

Result: FAILED | FAILED! | N/A | N/A


*requires the xbox 360 to be opened = get dad to help Sad

here i go wrapping my xbox in a towel.

Unreadable disc method test. *xbox fixed* Empty The Towel Trick Update.

Post by HuntingJake Sat 11 Oct 2008 - 22:36

So my second method test is The Towel Trick maybe it will work, but i doubt it.

What is The Towel Trick:
Its when you put your xbox360 in a soft cotton towel.

How long is it going in the towel for?
I don't know, prob\ably a couple of days at worst.

How is it going?
|Not very well no changes have been made to the error message or console so far.

I wouldn't open the xbox if I was you. If it still doesnt work you wont be able to get it repaired by microsoft.

My 360 reds discs as DVDs usually and both my Halo 3 discs don't load the last level of campaign.

My suggestion: buy a new 360. Or send it to Microsoft for repairs.

Tried a Different Method, i found out it was about to overheat so i opened it up so my dad can have a look, and he fixed it for me.
