Ok yall just got another Xbox today and can't get it to read any discs, I havn't had to replace the dvd before but before I go out and get another dvd drive for it is there any thing else I can try? It boots up fine no prob but just won't play anything in the drive.

You might want to change just the laser (only $9.99 + shipping)
alot cheaper than the hole drive that's if it's the laser and not your motor??? you need to find out what's not working _________________

I can hear the disc spinn when you put it in and it ejects fine, but Yeah I think replacing the laser would actualy be the best thing to do here, but first I think im gonna pop open the drive and see if I can clean it first and see what that does. I do know that it is a drive problem though so we'll see how the cleaning goes today.
Thanks yall

Well yall I cleaned the dvd drive today and all seems to be working pretty good so far, has not messed up on me once so I think it's fixed. well atleast for now lol which brings me to another point I was at a friends today because he is having similar issue but his keeps wanting the time set every time then when you put in the disc it won't play, anyone ever see that one before?
Damn I just hijacked my own thread LOL my bad

The old infinite clock loop, if the Xbox is unmodded leave it uplugged from the main for about 5 hours, when you plug it back in it gives you an option to set the clock, do so, it should be ok after that? If that's not enough then your stuck in a clock loop that can only be solved by installing a modchip and a bios that will bypass the clock check permanently.. _________________ Xbox V1.3
