the xbox 360 i have plays cd/dvds fine all the time but always and with every game i try it shows the please insert disk into a xbox 360 console to play.i think the xbox 360 is missing the the info that tells the system that the disk drive is capable of playing games this xbox was given to me along with two others because they did not work. there was only one system that turned on and let You get to the main menu but every disk was unreadable i found out that the drive was not spinning the disks because it appeared to be stuck so i took one of the disk drives from the other two consoles and placed it in this one and now it reads cds and dvds but just does not recognize that the drive is capable of reading xbox 360 games i tried updating the system hoping it would replace that missing info but it did not. does any one know how to make the xbox 360 able to play xbox 360 games again. the system i am speaking of was not tampered with i just removed the old nonworking drive and put a new tested working one in its place. Thank you for your time

silly question, but have you taken the drive key from the broken drive and put it onto the new drive?

Not a silly question as I can gaurantee that he didn't do that. But the new drive has to be flashed with the original drives firmware on order to play games.
