Unseal the hushed casket of my soul...

Oh No! It finally happened

Oh No! It finally happened to me, shortly after an update from Project Gotham 4, the disc drive failed to recognise ANY discs.

I tried all the Software resets I could find but nothing worked. Now I am left with an Out of Warranty Xbox and £380 out of Pocket.

I ain't paying Microsoft to fix a problem they created, Theres nothing wrong with the discs because theres no error message from the console, no red lights and theres nothing wrong with the hardware because the disc drive works fine under indurance tests. It definately seems to be a Software Fault. It only happened yesterday but I'm missing it already :(

Its probably one of those hidden windows myths, you know "Pick a Random date to Stop Working after the Warranty Experation" with a little tick in the box.

Ahh am so annoyed, I really liked my Xbox, so many things you take for granted until there gone

WAHHHAHAHA
