Went to play some Fallout earlier and my Xbox said "open tray" instead of loading the game like it usually does when I turn it on. I opened and closed the tray and the system clicked twice while saying "reading" before it
gave up and said "open tray" again. I've had this issue before about 6 months ago and it seemed to fix itself after I opened and closed the tray several times. I blew it out with a can of air duster to no avail, and I did the whole unplug it and take the hard drive thing... is there anything else I can do without having to send it in to Microsoft? (Which I've already done twice) Also, it was working perfectly fine just last night. In before "console gamer, lol" and "should have bought a PS3." |

I occasionally have this same issue, I have read that it is an issue with the disc drive dying. For me it usually goes away after a while, but it will start happening more and more frequently. I have taken to just installing games on my HD to reduce the wear on the disc drive and it happens a lot less often now. Eventually the disc drive will die altogether, but you can buy better replacements that are not too difficult to install.
