Hi all,

My brother in law give me his old Xbox for my kids, he said it was only playing some games and not playing others. The error was "open tray" error, i.e. when i put in a game 95% of the time it won’t load the game.

I've tried different copies of the same game so it's not a scratched disk.

I've googled the Xbox 360 open tray error and tried some of the things that came back.

1. Took all lead's out and reattached them
2. Cleared the memory
3. Took out the hard-drive, and put it back in.

I don’t know what to try now. The Xbox is out of warranty i was thinking about a DVD cleaner but I’m not sure.

If anyone has fixed or known’s any way around it...Please let me know
