360 Scratching Discs

[Alan_Carr]

Omg..
This is really annoying me now, my 360 is scratching all my games etc.
My fifa 08 disc is practically FULLY scratched now.
Is this happening to most of you other guys? And is there any way of preventing this happening?
If there is, please post, as i'd really appreciate it.

Take it to the shop you got it from with the receipt.

[Alan_Carr]

Take what to the shop?
The game?
I got my 360 from play.com LOL

[Cypher-]

it scratched my gears game but halo 3 and fifa are ok

it's not on an angle is it? if its standing up, lie it down. and if you move it while its on it scratches them.
go on xbox.com then ring customer support, they will replace any 360 which does this, and they will replace the games too.

When I purchased my 360 I was informed that if you had the 360 stood up vertically then it can scratch disks so lie it down horizontally.

do the tooth paste trick.


cover with tooth paste (silver bitty)
leave for ten minutes (or something)
wash with hot water until its off (worked with me for minor scratches)

Thats cool

But..

follow the toothpaste method

[Alan_Carr]

Lol, serious, does the toothpaste trick actually work?
I dont understand how it prevents scratching? Explain pls? :)

[GoldSolid]

It doesn't prevent scratching, it gets rid of scratching..

I'm assuming.
