Im having problems playing games on my 360. I can play dvd's fine and cd's just when i try and load a game it wont play and i have tried most of my games which are in perfect shape no scratches. MS wants to charge me 100 bux to send it in plus shipping ect. Im sure its an easy fix not sure if anyone has any suggestions please post them . Also this isnt a modded 360 and i just ran out of warranty just my luck.

well since its out of warranty no harm in opening it up...

ya could try replacing the laser in the drive... but personally that seems tricky and ya could screw it up ...

instead ya could extract the key from your current drive and buy a replacement of the same brand... then flash it ...

or ya could buy an identical drive and swap the PCB's .. this would skip the key extracting part... but again ya could screw it up...
