JraceR will become famous soon enough

Default Unplayable Disc Error

Ok, I have had my 360 almost 2 years now, so I am pretty sure that this isn't good. Everytime I put in one of my discs, it says that it is an Unplayable Disc. Yet, my disc works on my friend's 360. I take it that my Disc drive is screwed up and I will have to call 1-800-4MY-XBOX...does this sound right?

The same thing happened to me i was going to call them then people told me to take off the Hard Drive and blow inside it to get dust out and it's been fine ever since. But if you've already done that then yeah the right thing is probably to call them.

I am not that stupid. I am only doing what I think will help. If I was that stupid, then my 360 will have been broken a long time ago. xD.

JraceR, that is exactly what happened with my new Xbox 360!! (mine though I only had for a few weeks before the problem happened )

I tried all the tricks like unplugging and replugging the cables and stuff but nothing work.

I believe this problem is the beginning of the 3RROD problem. Luckily i was still covered by both warranties so they gave me a brand new free console, but for you I'm not sure if they'll make you pay or consider it a 3RROD related issue.

Yeah, I bet my warranty just ran out at the end of August. I will call later...and spend my money on the new console instead of buying a new game. >.<

You could argue with them though that you should be getting a brand new console like everyone else since yours is defective...

I would keep trying to use it until the 3RROD comes. My second (I think it was the 2nd one...) broken 360 started with the disc read error which then evolved into the 3RROD a week later. If you can force the 3RROD you can get a new 360 for free.

...or even just try calling them and saying you have the 3RROD...since they don't even bother fixing the consoles anymore, they won't even notice, and heck, the unplayable disc thing usually happens, like GF said, close before the 3RROD starts.
