Hi there,

After reading through a lot of topics on both here and Reddit I wasn't able to find a solution for the problem on one of my xbox's.
When I put a disc in the dvd tray it starts spinning and the green light stays on on the console. But that's it, no reading errors or that kind of stuff.
It won't play any disc.
FYI it's an original one with no mods, a cleaned board and a removed capacitor.

Thanks

Hello.:)

If you disassemble your XBox please look which Model your DVD Drive is.

For a Thompson DVD you can look at here:

http://xbox.x-pec.com/thomson/index.html

For a Philips please use the attached XBOX_philips.pdf please

And for Samsung (and all other also) please use the XBox_Repair_GUIDE.pdf

If you do not have an voltage meter:

- please MARK your SCREW(s) Position BEFORE start turning them
- slow,tiny little Moves (less then a Millimeter) and try it after each change.

Good Luck.:)

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    did you always have a ps4 you never updated
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or were you able to get new ps4 tracking it \
    as soon as the hack was announced
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    or did you have to find a used one with the lower firm ware that was not updated
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3 (You know me, I'm more of a Xbox junkie)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ps3 really has no titles worth going online

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    In modern standards
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
