Xbox disc player thingy...

[CoDeNcE]

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?

Cody i told you a million times to just order a new drive online!

Try this first...http://www.llamma.com/xbox/Repairs/xbox_dvd_repair.htm

But thats not what i kare about i'm wondering if i should just wait for X-box 2 or a new X-box or if i should just get a new drive, or even a cleaner...

Well...xbox 2 wont be out till late this year or sometime next year. So if u wanna live with your games doing the error all the time i would a.) do the first thing i posted or b.) http://www.xbox-scene.com/hardware/lens-thomson.php.

I dont know i think i want to get a new drive and what not, maybe i will send it in, but you want to help out with it anyway... of course this can be on a day you dont have DT

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 .

nahhh dont get a new drive... sell your xbox to me for 50 bucks.

 

[Krux]

that was sarcasm btw unless u wanna sell it to me for 50 bucks then by all means do so.

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.

 

[CoDeNcE]

I think ill get a thompson one for 49.95 and hopfully this will work, but ofcourse im going to try the disc cleaner first

 

[Tittles]

bout time u listen to me choady! I will be later today if the roads get plowed even tho u live a road over .

 

[napalmnthemorning]

thompsons are the worst of the three drives. 50$ ? I smell a solder

 

[Tittles]

yeah i know that thompson is bad but he doesnt plan on doing any mods. He just does lan parties and stuff like that.
