How to Manually EJECT a DISC from your Xbox SERIES X Console. STUCK DISC FAULT

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 9 вер 2024
  • Hi, this videos shows you what to do if your disc has become stuck in your Xbox Series X console. Firstly try to Power Cycle your console to do a hard reset (this will not delete anything from your Xbox). If the game disc still does not eject, then you will have to use a paper clip to manually remove the disc using the hidden hole at the bottom/side of the console. You will need to insert the paper clip at least 35mm (3.5cm) to be able to remove the disc.
    Many thanks Vince

      I have never known discs not to eject. The Xbox drawer got a bit sticky, but my 15yr old 360 never had a problem. I also have 1989 CD player which only rarely struggles to open. Lack of a drawer might be an issue though, as you can't give it a helping hand.

    Good to know these things, but now I'd prefer a disc-less Series X, I wanted it initially to double up as a bluray player, however it doesn't support Dolby Vision on bluray. So I'll need to buy a standalone bluray player now. No discs for me, hardcopy games are just a collector's preference.

      Edit: I've just pushed the paper clip in more than suggested in this video and finally got the disc out lol. So do I have to send this bricked console back to Microsoft under warranty?

    Hey Vince! I see you had Just Dance 2017 in an XBOX Series X. According to Microsoft they dropped the Kinect Sensor and it will not work with the New Xbox Series S/X. Do you have a Kinect Sensor with Adapter to confirm? Was just wondering. Thanks
