- 2 tips on how to get your Xbox reading disc when it doesn't - usually on first install.
TIP 1: Unplug power brick and wait for Orange Light to turn White, then plug back in.
TIP 2: Lift xbox slightly until you hear the drive work.
Thank you so much man, I’ve had this beast for almost 7 years and it had me a bit worried but thanks to you it’s reading my disc again. You deserve a like.
My Xbox is 10 years old, was thinking this was finally bringing the curtain down…. Video worked perfectly, did all the above and now my game is working. Thanks
Absolute legend! I have been trynna fix my disc drive for ages. Nothing I did helped. Saw this short video while my Xbox was restarting and thought, "fuck it, might as well" and I did what you said and it worked! You're an absolute fuckin genius man. Thank you for the tip. It's been a couple years since I was able to play games on disc.
Glad it worked! 👍🏻
Brilliant, disc is reading now. So strange, other older, scratched up discs were working fine but this specific one didn’t want to read despite it being absolutely spotless
3 years and it still works, thanks beast 💪
The tilt is OP worked like a charm. Thank you!
Tip #1 worked for me! Thanks for the money saved on not buying another!
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! I HAVE WATCHED SO MANY VIDEO FOR THIS ISSUE THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT WORK THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU JUST GOT A NEW SUBCRIBER
Dude I love you my Xbox stoped reading disc and the light was white so I unplugged it and the box and the plugged back in and I tillted the Xbox up and it worked!! ❤❤
The light thing worked for me after a long time thanks for your input did not hear about that from anyone else. Cheers.
I am absolutely dumbfounded, this second bit work like a charm. Instantly fixed my issue. Thanks
Genius!!
Thought I had to throw out my Xbox for a new one, but this worked!!
You legend... You saved my xbox from being thrown in the trash!
Dude you’re amazing literally tried everything and this worked !
Thank touuu!! I didn’t need the tilting park just the disconnecting plugs I’ve been dying to play red dead for the past 2 hours 😭😭
I was thinking there was no way that would work, an by gosh it did, awesome thanks!
That’s insane it actually worked 😭 I was really going to return my copy of final fantasy 15 until literally I lifted it up a lil and it read the disc
Thank you for this info it really helped me out. I thought I was going to buy a new xbox.
Raising your Xbox one can causes damage to the disc. not as bad as the Xbox 360’s ring that would be left if you moved ur Xbox at all on the disc. This is for the ppl out there doing this, Raising your Xbox one with a game inside is hurting ur game. What he did with unplugging the power brick and waiting was a way to do a hard reset on the Xbox one
put the two together and magic. Unreal thanks
Thank you so much this really works 😊 I thought I was gonna have to give up on my og Xbox one ❤
literally the only method that works, thank you
Its just staying orange what should i do
I’m having this same issue.
This is the only one that worked may god bless you
Another good method is put the disc in and don’t let it pull it in right away for a few seconds and release it works loads for me with a old system
FIRST TIP WORKED!!!!!! Thank you soooo much!
Was the disc in the xbox when you did it?
U can put the disc in halfway and let it spin and let it go inside that helped me
Very helpful, the second tip worked wonders, subscribing is the least I can do :)
Thank you!! Lifting it worked for me :D
thank you so so so much i finally found a good way to fix it the first tip worked for me thank you so much :)
You're welcome buddy, glad it helped :)
I have been looking for a video to help me with my Xbox One
i did tip 1 and my xbox broke it doesnt turn on anymore, it goes orange to white but when i press the xbox sign on my xbox it wont turn on neither the controller
Thank you very much! I thought my Xbox was done for!!! You saved me!
Well the second tip u provided was good but you didn't explain it that well. You have to raise the Xbox right as u put in the disc then it will send the disc further back in the Xbox so it can be read by so called Xbox.
THANK YOU SO MUCH OMG I WAS SO CLOSE TO SMASHING MY XBOX
Thanks very helpful..anyone remember when the fix for your system was to blow in the cartridge and the system🤣🤣🤣
Doesn't work. I've literally tried everything.
Mr. Succ does your drive spin at all? Think you may need a new one
Mr. Succ same
Sucks for you
Same here, this used to work but now its not...
I'm currently searching everywhere right now to find why mine is refusing to read discs...
I've tried literally everything to get mine to read discs as I started off thinking it was just the disc so I put in a brand new disc and still I get a stupid fooking "check your disc" thrown in my face...
Really starting to get super annoyed !
Thank god for UA-cam!
Xbox and consoles suck! I’m going to build my son his first PC next year
Boutta see if this glitch got hacked in the 2022 update
I'm still not sure how to get it working, even after doing the Tips. It starts to spin but than stop than spin than stop so i'm guessing the sensor is dirty or somehting else.
same issue here, no "disk" area even pops up on my xbox to say it's unreadable it just doesn't even attempt to check it
@@alexflu2I'm getting that same problem you find a solution for yours?
@@idontevenexist8421 sadly no.. I play what games I have available on the marketplace and no longer use the drive. she's been sitting on my tv stand unused for the better part of a year now seeing as I can't play the games I bought most recently for it. I had this same issue back with a 360 and had to send it in multiple times to have it fixed (to microsoft while under warranty). the first time I sent it in they sent me back a different xbox that had a similar issue then after sending that one back I recieved a third xbox that the disk drive would only eject slightly. I was tired of waiting and decided that wasn't a big enough issue to send it back so I would just yank on it to pull it out and throw my disk in. pretty sure I only played final fantasy 11 at the time so I didn't really need to swap disks.. one strange thing I noticed before it went bad (xbox 360 still) was that it wasn't till I tried to play a different game that i had the issue i believe i was trying to play halo or call of duty.. not quite sure. but inserting FFXI always worked till it finally went kaput. please keep me informed if you find a solution! I may fire it up now just to give it another shot.. I would like to play the FF-x and FFx-2 remaster I have (which was the last disk i got working) I had tried to play one of the black ops whichever one has transit and whatnot but ended up buying that one on the market place for quite a lot more than I had just bought the disk for.. totally worth giving that game one last go at the time with two local friends :D even if we were terribly rusty haha.
I took an old thrashed disc and attached "Mole Skin"(dr scholls its for foot blisters) to one side.
And added a few drops of rubbing alcohol.
Inserted the disc about half way,
Hold for a second.....
Then pull it out.
And repeat a few times.
You are attempting to klean the infeed mechanizm.
Without dismantling the Xbox
I repeated about six or 8 times.
Before it started to feed correctly.
That was a month ago
This is the only trick that worked!
OMG not even kidding it worked thank you so much bro
It doesnt work😢😢 it just doesnt show anything
I had to put my in a slanted angle and tap it on top in order for it to read new games..
You're the best!!! It worked
Well the 1st tip works thank you :)
Thank you!! Worked like a charm
Absolute legend! Thank you
Could you tell me if you still see this why didn’t my orange light thing turn off?
usually takes about 5 minutes for me, make sure u give it a minute
It worked for a few weeks and now it doesn't anymore unfortunately
He said a little while while I had to wait ten minutes 😭 and I’m not sure if it will even work
OMG thank you, this worked for me!
My Xbox always reads the disc - audibly so - yet it still either fails to recognize a disc has entered the console or it says it is dirty/damaged. I’ve tried over 15 disc, all of which are in spotless condition. I’m pretty sure the sensor in the disc drive is either dirty or has gone bad. Any tips before I rip her open?
Do the thing he says at the start it works perfectly
Thanks worked like a charm
First tip actually work thanks g
TRNT Was the disc in the xbox when you did it
Thanks for the help
Ok so I lifted the xbox like you said, and now it won't read or eject the disc 😐 last time I come to this app for help
Thx this really worked for me
Same problem on the Xbox one s but this method still has not fixed mine 😞
Its only one specific disc for me, couple very faint scratches. Doesnt even prompt me saying cant read disk, dont even show the game. Just nothing. Any other disc works fine so idk
This used to work for me and now nothing does...
Can here disc spin, can hear it being read but then i get a stupid "check your disc" thrown in my face!
Though maybe its the disc, so i put a brand new one in and still get this annoying pop up...
But if i put a dvd in thats scratched to hell and back it plays fine, just wont play games!!!
IT WORKED TY now I need to grind for badges in 2k
Damn 4 years ago do you still play 2k ?
Problem I'm having is it keeps saying disks are dirty or damaged and that includes new discs..
It's infuriating!
It worked dude thanks
Unfortunately it didn’t help me :/
I’m not exactly sure what’s happening, but it won’t spin the disc to read it once inserted into the Xbox.
IT WORKED
you’re a fucken legend mate
Why is my power brick white then when i unplug it it turns orange ?
Thank you
thanks bro your the best
You are the best thanks worked
Thank you legend
Fantastic wow thanks great tip
It’s spinning
Mine is 8 years old and it didn't work
Man my Xbox is 12 years old it still won’t read I might need a upgrade BTW I JUST FLIPED IT VERTICALLY AND IT READ IT
My xbox don't have a power box
Yep. Doing it.....nice pal
Neither of these worked because I found out that my xbox reads disks fine, just not this gta5 for some reason.
Thank you very much
It's not worked, cex have sold me a broken console which doesn't read discs or load, fuming that it's going to cost me more in taxi fees to get it exchanged and then bring back home the one I swap it for, don't have receipt but payed on my card, if they make this simple transaction which is no fault of my own smooth, if not I will be fuming, can't even speak to anyone in store either by phone 🤬
Worked
It actually worked 👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks a million mate! The second technique worked! Earned my sub!
Thanks
I need my controller charged
Thx
It did not work
Had my xbox one since 2014 and the disc drive stopped working in 2020 and now NOTHING has worked to fix it. Godamn you to hell microsoft. Why do modern consoles have the disc drive be internal nowadays. Xbox 360 had a better one where it ejects so you can clean it thoroughly with no hassle.
I lifted my xbox just like the video said... and it worked hahahaha wtf?!?!?
It’s witchcraft! 🧙😂
It Doesn't Work
It didn't work bro
I cleaned it out it in restart and wooh laah
Please help !!!!
Are these comments even real ? Because it doesnt work
nah they're real , just tried it now
@@Stevvo365 it doesnt work
@@Jordan-nf7pp dang well i'd recommend buying a new one if all doesn't work out
@@Stevvo365 i played lego jurassic park , had it inside ever since i first put it in , then took it out to try a different lego game an hour later for it to just not spin the discs anymore, also in between i have cleared my persistence storage , could that have caused it ?
No luck
Man, mine doesnt read xbox one games but it does read xbox 360 games, so whats up with that…?
