Problems with the Box, wondering if any1 can help me out.
Half my games have suddenly stop playing, the Box wont read / recognise them. Discs are all conpletly fine (no scratches etc).
Called up xbox helpline, they say it'l be £70 for a service - anyway i can do this without sending it? If so where are the screws to open it!! lol.

Cheers peeps.

Here you go:

Whatever you do, DO NOT DISCONNECT ANYTHING FROM THE HARD DRIVE - Leave everything connected to the hard drive and just move it to the side, otherwise it will most probably unlock. And then you're screwed.

There are 6 screws - 4 under the rubber feet and one under each label.

I'll find you the guide in a sec.

As for speed, search on ebay for a 'buy it now' drive with next day delivery. It's the quickest way

DVD Drive sounds knackered to me.

You can buy a replacement off eBay (go for the Samsung ones) and replace it yourself.

I can find you a very good guide if you're interested in taking that route.
