Title: Disk not reading? Post by: rdnck338 on December 12, 2005, 07:24:50 PM Well this is stuff i do that might help you :) NEVER BLOW AIR IN YOUR XBOX!!!!!!!!!!!! Becuase it will cause the dust in your xbox to go all over everything! So then you will have to open your xbox and clean it! And that might not be fun. Well try this first!
Above the disk drive is the plate aka cover. Yes (i hope there is). What i have tried is push down on the cover and you will see it move down some. You will need to hold it and what tell game is loaded. This might work this might not work who knows. But i know it worked some what for me. So it might work for you! Well i hope it does. If this doesnt work i would say your reading lense are dirty. You might need to get in there and whip it with a damp q-tip. (not to wet though)! Well thanks tell me if this worked for you. nick black xmpstinky Title: Re: Disk not reading? Post by: Kyla666 (zzk2001) on December 18, 2005, 03:55:54 AM NEVER BLOW AIR IN YOUR XBOX.......

Post by: MIKEMAN on December 20, 2005, 09:16:07 AM I agree that there is a risk vs reward to blowing in your xbox (gotta watch you dont spray, lol)
For the rest of us, if you have really bad read errors and you want to clean, you can always follow my tutorial on cleaning. For the most part I agree with Stinky, DONT BLOW... CLEAN Good tip xmpstinky MIKEMAN Title: Re: Disk not reading?
