Hi, I have a 360 with a TS-H943, flashed with LT. My problem is that my games won't play sometimes. One of four things happens when I put a disc in, it'll say "Open Tray", "Mixed Media Disc", "Play Game", or "Play Title". 5/7 games work, sometimes they take a while, sometimes they work right away, those games being Fallout 3, Force Unleashed II, Fable 3, Forza 2, and Red Dead Redemption. Neither Mass Effect 2 or Oblivion will work. I've burned Oblivion twice, so I know it wasn't the single disc, and comments on the torrent lead me to believe that the iso is good. I use Verbatim DVD+R DL, burned at 2.4x using the .dvd file in imgburn. When it comes up as "Play Game", it shows the option to view details, but it's unusable, and when I select the game to play it, it gives me the disc is unreadable, clean it, etc. error. I don't know if it plays original games or not, I don't have any, or have any available to me. I have not tried to reburn ME2.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Update (yes, this soon), as soon as I posted the thread, my Oblivion disc worked and showed up as "Play Oblivion". I went to install it, and it gave me the dirty disc error, I tried 3 more times and it worked. I'll update again once I find out if it goes all the way or not.

Okay, it got up to 54%, and gave me the dirty disc error, I went back to the dashboard and it was "Play Game" again.

fable 3 will give the disk not clean error or might work, it's not confirmed as it works on some Samsung drives and others don't. It seems that your drive maybe dying, I suggest either re-flashing or buying a new laser.

please if your asking about xbox 360 firmware, LT+, how to cut and solder, what drive you have and such check this PDF file

I'm assuming you didn't actually read what I wrote. Fable III DOES work. Only Oblivion and Mass Effect 2 don't.

did you use abgx to verify the CRC of the game?

agbx came out clean, everything green, just like all of my other games. I'm going to try to clean my lens.

Edit: Cleaned my lens using q-tips and glasses cleaner, booted my Xbox up and it read right away, installing it now, I'll update once something happens.

And that was it. Both ME2 and Oblivion work now.
