easy fix, just go on ebay, you can get a cheap tompson for like 30-40 usd. i know everyone says they suck but brand new works pretty darn good, then you can check out xbox-scene for a tutorial on how to tweak the laser to read better and even cd-r's. hope this helps. you don't even have to do anything to install the new dvbd drive. they are all plug and play.

Eventually you should get the samsiung dvd drive from http://www.llamma.com. They are only charging 60 for the 130 dollar drive.
