xbox 360 problems


Recommended Posts

Hey, i was having problems with my charge and play set and i picked up my xbox while it was on and it has now scratched the disk and left a big mark around the center of the disk. The disk was "Call of duty 4". and no when i go in games like S&D it does say " search and destroy, defend the objective!" what can i do to sort this problem, all i can hear in the game is gun shots. also my xbox is making a noise what sounds like the disk is spinning and then stopping and then spinning agian, but i cant remember if it did this before

any help please?

Cheapest thing is to try one of those DVD/CD repair kits to see if you can mend your disc (that might fix your problems then)... or pray that HDD installs comes around soon and borrow a good disc off someone and hope yours is ok. Do your other games work ok?

Yes the game workd fine, i can still play it but it just have no game sound apart from the gun fire

Not that this will be of much help, but it does make it clear in the manual never to move the console when a disc is in the drive.

See how it goes with reading other discs, if it's borked, then you'll have to send it in, but it may not be covered if they can tell you moved it.

If you or anyone else comes across this, for North America customers, check out this page for information and pricing as to get a replacement disc: https://activision.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/act...p?p_faqid=16917

    • Too soon, I'm still not over this death!
    • Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary in AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update but that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
    • ALL versions or ALL SUPPORTED versions? Neowin does it again.
    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
