Whenever i put in a newer game, it gives me the "Xbox don't recoginize this Cd or DvD or it could be dirty or damaged, and im wondering where i could find one of them on the internet, im to lazy to look it up... Or would it just be smarter to buy a new x-box?

the classes end on thrusday and saturday i drive one more time and next tuesday i take the exam . Wait for the other buttheads on the forum to have a say before anything. Dont u have a cd cleaner thingy? If not i have one and we can try that sometime soon. If that dont work then we can order that part . If my xbox didnt take a crap we could of used mine .

as others have said, try a CD cleaner if that doesnt work order a dew drive, if I remember correctly there are about three different drives with the thompson being the best as they read CDR's.

By poking around inside your xbox you will void the warranty, but swapping out the cd drive is very easy.

Tittles
