"Disk unreadable" ..... OH FOR F*CK SAKE!!!! - PSP-Forum.com

Kernel Kev · 04-11-2007, 04:42 PM

Ok, my xbox 360 is coming up with the disk unreadable message, it only does it with my rainbow 6 vegas game. Now i looked at the disk and it has like 4-5 slight scratches where my mate borrowed it.

I have got a disk cleaner and have done it a few times now so i cant see it being the disk, i have also got a lense cleaner which i have done about 5 times now, so its not the lens.

I heard that this message comes up when the 360 overloads or something, maybe its all balls but i dont know.

Anyways, anyone else got this problem and what have you done, and what do you suggest i do?

Let the 360 cool for 3-four hours.

Lol, thanks for the help but this is not the deal, i have my 360 off all day whilst im at work. Unless you mean turn it off by the plug for 3 - 4 hours, if so i cant see how that would help.

That's what I'd do. Unplug everything and let it sit for hours. DO NOT put it in the fridge/freezer. This causes condensation. If that doesn't work, buy the game again and take the broken one back and get your cash whilst you have a new one.

Our games are wrapped up and sealed so how would i be able to take it back?

Buy it. Take it home. Open it up. Switch the discs. Take it back saying that it doesn't work, and you want a refund.

Surely they will test it?

EDIT: Derr, it dosent work so dosent matter if they test it, what if its something wrong with the 360 hardware, as i read something about that too.

First I'd check the game in another 360 just to make sure its not the hardware. I doubt it but it never hurts to check.

If it still doesn't work then just go with Constantine's idea or get your friend that borrowed it to buy a new copy.

I find it really peculuar that you wrote the three as "3" and the four as "four". Normally people would do one or the other. Not that this matter in relation to anything what-so-ever but still... it amused me so.

I didn't notice that :| I was in a computer class at the time, trying to help two people with Excel/Power point projects at the same time.

Im taking it round a mates to try it on his one, as it does it at the same point each time, end of the first level. So if it dosent do it there then im calling microsoftt again, first time they said take the hard drive out and play without it. So they must have had problems with the hardware itself causing this message.
