Xbox issue (Wont play any disk/open tray)

Anyone had this issue? It's not playing any of my disks, it will say reading then open tray. Troubleshooting it as we speak but not having too much luck.

Had the same problem. Find a soft carpet or soft rug and hold the xbox anout 3 inches above it then drop it on the tray face side. Just make sure to guide it so it doesn't fall on it's side. Like hold your hands around it and gently let it hit then immediately grab it after it hits. Dead serious it worked

buy a new drive and spoof it to your board.........either that or buy a new xbox because you are screwed. Seriously though, a long shot would be to buy the lense cleaner disc for the xbox which you can find at bestbuy. It runs about 9 bucks and will sometimes do the trick. If that doesnt work, short of taking your drive apart, I would look for a new xbox

That sucks, why couldn't i go down in RROD glory like a normal person. I will try the disk cleaner, maybe the dropping it on a rug or hitting the top of it with a controller.

Make sure it's a thick carpet/rug. I'm not trying to bs you into cracking your xbox. Just in case you do try it. Just what worked for me
