SOURCE: Xbox Does not play original games

It was a faulty powersupply that caused this problem faulty used error codes from llamma.com as posted by CTF1800. Futhermore I am using a modified PC PSU - cut the cables from the old Xbox PSU and soldered them onto the PC PSU and I did not need to strip the Xbox. Power Pinouts available on LLama.com

You likely need a new laser. I would recommend getting your System diagnosed by a professional.

SOURCE: my xbox will not play regular movies or games. it

If your Xbox 360 will not play your games this is because of the sensors on the back of the drive overheating it is not normally the laser.

Luckily you can fix this yourself and get back to your games and to do this you need the proven Xbox 360 Repair guide.

Or you can send it in and they will fix it for you the repair will take about 4 weeks.

You can use the recommended guide to fix this and get back to gaming.

Once the heat stops the games start.

The xbox 360 will not play a game.so what can you do about it.

if the system turns on but will not read a game try a dvd movie or music cd. If dvd movies dont' play and the music cd does then your laser is out of calibration. The process to calibrate it is difficult and requires more technical knowledge. It is best to take it to a service center or have someone replace the DVDROM which coudl be cheaper than paying to clean and calibrate the laser.

Xbox wont read any of our games, but the games will read on friends. We can listen to music or use our microsoft points to watch movies.

Sounds like an issue with the optical drive. I would suggest trying a different type of disc in the drive ( I think they can play music CD's as well as DVD discs). You might just need a replacement drive for it.

My xbox 360 pro will not paly the music on my ipod that i downloaded from itunes

To listen to music files encoded in Apple's AAC audio format, your Xbox 360 console will need the AAC codec (a processing file), which is available as a free download from Xbox LIVE Marketplace.

Xbox won't read my disk

try a music cd, movie dvd, game disc.

which ones do not work?

if it will not play just one type or only 1 game i woudl check the game itself. if it will not play say games or dvds but will play cds then your laser needs calibreation.

here is a link to explain this.
http://www.fixya.com/support/r4192169-fix_calibration_cd_dvd_drive_no_disc

doign this on the xbox will void warranty if there is any but also requires special tools for proper disassembly soyou don't damage the case.

Sometimes for some strange reason it will read just movies!

Disk reading error

Hi,

this is a possible laser read problem.
Try an official DVD Movie. And also a music CD.
if it reads nothing at all, i,d suggest a laser head cleaner.
Or a replacement DVD Drive.
