Xbox no longer playing the games?

[BobX]

Hey guys.. i know that im well retro with an XBOX 1 but i'm trying to sell it to buy a 360..

i noticed today it wasnt reading barely any of my games when i was trying to load them, just going to like the screen as if there wasn't a game in there..

i have tried to search on google and the xbox website itself for solutions but all i get is things about 360's...

can anyone help me fix it? or link me to a site that helps?


+ rep to anyone who helps me! ;)

Maybe its been thrown around abit like when you was moving it etc and a chip has come out inside?

OR

discs are scratched

Sounds like the reading lens to me.

It's not worth it mate, you'll only get like £20 for it at max.

[BobX]

right

@jord why would i throw it about.. and the discs are not scratched.
@nath it plays some games still but not others ? :(
@paul yeah but i could get like 40 quid for it on ebay if it worked and then they couldnt complain and be like "it dont work omg refund us!" i just need any money from this to go towards my 360

[Cwmbran]

if it plays some other games then your discs are probably just dirty, give them a clean apparently toothpaste works well but ive never tried it.

[BobX]

i have cleaned them thoughroly already nothings happening.. its like 10 of my games or more that dont work =[

Just give it a good 'ol kick around the garden, you could just take the case off, get a new dvd drive and install linux on it ;) get a bigger hard drive and put some games on it :) job a good 'un :)

Because you could be moving it and be moving it to fast and hard or your parents dropped it or friend or sister brother w.e

hmmm... my Xbox 360 would not play my grand theft auto game so i had too restart my console several times and wipe the disc several times but after this it gradually started to work.
