i got gears of war!
rclxms.gif

but now with the disc there are sometimes disc read errors.. and i was wondering if this was just a disc prob or disc read errors mean something wrong with system.

because disc looks very clean, and the next time it is played, the error doesnt come up.

i also got a brief red ring of light once.. sweat.gif

no.. its original. the system is unmodded.

the disc is from the US bytheway..

there just comes the side bad saying the xbox was unable to read the disc.. right in the middle of the game, and then it goes back to the dashboard. if i select play game again, then its ok

damn i also have the same problem with gow,
only during online multiplayer matches,
it will sometimes show the same msg when loading a new map, and then goes back to the dashboard, damn frustrating...

another problem is with NFS:most wanted,
sometimes when i change cars it will try to load the car but then hang....

I've faced this problem as well.
It's gone after I stop leaving the disc in the console when I'm not playing.
The other day I forgot to remove the disc, and during the next playing session the error msg appeared (hours into the game).

Could be a coincidence though.

Hmm, but from the beginning got this problem as well?

I usually leave the disc in the tray even after gaming it, both on or off

is this because dvd-9 discs are more sensitive to be read by the laser? maybe it has some glitch when reading data and switching layers?

I'm disappointed in MS as I have face this problem with my 2 games, Gow and Lost Planet. It pop up a message in the middle of the game and said disc cant be read. My GoW disc have minor circular scratches in the middle of the disc while Lost Planet disc is perfectly clean.

I don't understand why this machine is so fragile... disc scratches, 3RoD, disc read error, etc etc... my PS2 last me five years and still running strong now eventhough it has NEVER play original games on it. My Xbox 360 games are all original.

I am PISS!

3Rod... never appear anymore *touch wood*... I believe the 3Rod is caused by the power supply as I shared it with my monitor and PC speakers. I switch it to use individual socket already... *sigh...* don't know what to do with this box... sad.gif

It is not often lah... oblivion so far has never experience this but the machine fails to read the title screen data so the title screen is always corrupted... don't know what happen... but inside the game everything is okay.

disc error msges occurs once in a blue moon on my console.. the only thing i can think of is.. dust.. cos its been 8 months in my room..so i guess the dust accumulates in the machine.. prolly a dvd cleaner would help... the one with the brush underneath.. i'll prolly get one later & see how it goes..

If your XBOX 360 console comes with a Samsung drive, the chances of having disc read error is high, including games like NFS Carbon, GOW, COD3, Burnout Revenge, etc. However, if you own a Hitachi-LG drive, it's a lot better, less problems, only ocassional pauses with some dual layered dvd movies. That's what I found out, my first XBOX 360 console came with a Samsung drive and after the 3ROD thingy, they changed another one with Hitachi-LG and I'm happy using it till now.
