i really hope its not the lens or such that is giving the problem.. i tried to replicate the problem i had in eM and it happened just right after the cutscene like before.. same prob.. the disc spin down then suddenly pops the disc unreadable issue... everytime the drive will always spin down then give the error... for GoW i think it should be the disc thats giving the problem.. will try in GH tomorrow, lucky i stay in kota damansara...

on another note... France FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i opened up my xbox 360 just now and i think i found out why i keep on getting the disc unreadable error... i opened up the dvd drive bay and found the rubber ring that holds the disc to be dirty.. i cleaned it using my fingers as a temporary solve and guess what... closed up the system fire up GoW and it works... now going through the campaign to see how longs it holds up till it stops again... not sure if this is the fix or if some other stuff i fiddled with inside helped..

my warranty is over and im in the forensic line, thats why im fiddling with it.. tongue.gif

Why not? The giants themselves finally admit it.

MICROSOFT FINALLY ADMITS RROD FAULT
They have turned deaf ears whenever the question "what is causing the problem" is asked. Not anymore.

As a courtesy to gamers who were "cursed" with staring down in disbelief at the Xbox 360 "red ring of death," Microsoft extended the console's warranty to three years. The company, however, never really offered an honest and precise explanation as to what really caused the hardware failures indicated by the three dreaded red lights flashing on some poor sap's X360.
8Bit Joystick interviewed an "inside source" at MS who allegedly participated in the consoles manufacturing and testing. According to the source, the console was simply rushed in order to gain a headstart on the market before Sony did. Due to this, cheap heat sinks were used in production, which would account for the RROD problems. What's even more concerning is that MS may run out of suitable replacements for systems that have experienced these issues.

This interview confirms what some of us already suspected for a long time. Also, there's a good chance it's true, since Jake Metclalf, author of the interview, certainly knows how to pick his sources - he had an anonymous tip from Microsoft one week before the MS-Bungie split.
