    How do i fix it?

    OK, i have an Xbox 360 that is almost brand new. the day i got it i got halo 3,
    a few weeks later i got Call of Duty 4, and a month or 2 later i got Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and GTA4. My console has had no problems reading any of there discs. Then i stopped playing Rainbow six and GTA4 for a while and mainly played halo and cod4. Now the other day i tried to play GTA4 and rainbow six and my console would not read eather one. i am sure the problem is not scratches because my halo and call of duty have alot more scratches than those 2 games. and my gta4 has 0 scratches on it at all. just to be sure i cleaned both discs with disc cleaning fluid. but they still would not work.Then i bought a can of compressed air and cleaned out all the dust from the console and still no luck.

    So, can someone please help me and tell me how i might be able to fix it?

    Thank you,
    Ermac

    Did you update your 360 data in the time before it stopped working?

    I think your xbox360 is the probelm, not the games. Send your xbox360 to a repair shop or something mate. Do you have red ring of death?

    no i dont have the red ring of death. and it costs $100 to get it fixed for disk reading errors so i want to know for sure that that is the problem before i resort to sending it in.

    NO NO NO NO and NO.

    Your 360 is fine, when you don't play a certain game for a certain period of time the 360 will not recognize it. All you have to do is just keep trying insert the disc. Thats what I READ at least.

    You should try renting GTA to see if it's your game or the XBOX first unless you don't really care to buy a new one.

    If you play it vertical it will scratch your disks, play it horizontal.

    u got warranty? if so: send it back to microsoft its a error, the first batches of consoles had this error and burned out with red rod.. when you get back buy a xbox cooling fan to plug in power supply of it too...

    if u dont got warranty, then itll cost ya..
