CAGiversary!
So my 360 died for the second time, and this time it is now out of warranty, so I'm SOL. From my observations, I'm guessing something with the DVD drive is screwed up. I'm wondering if anyone knows what would cause the drive to stop reading DVDs, but still let's it read standard CD-roms. I can't play any games or movies, but I can play music discs fine. Any ideas on how to fix it myself would be much appreciated. The system also boots up just fine, no red lights, and I can access everything off my HD, so the system plays demos and arcade games.
Also, whenever I insert a DVD, it's as if the disc hasn't even been put in. The screen says "Reading" then immediately switches to "Open Tray"
Also, in case the fix is basically, "get a new drive" then is there any place other than Microsoft that could fix it, because I'm not too keen on spending 150 bucks and waiting 2 weeks on something with a history of breaking down.
