    Can't read game discs


    My Xbox one is having trouble reading games. No errors just says insert disc. It quickly reads dvds no problem. My games are mint no scratches or anything.

    I got it to detect a game last night by starting a DVD then putting a game. That's not working today. Almost seems like a software issue due to it quickly reading dvds.

    :)

    Can't read game discs

    Got it to read again by playing a DVD then swapping for a game. This is ridiculous! I'm thinking about a factory reset but don't want to lose my saved games

  5. Did yours happen suddenly? Mine used to have this issue, but fixed itself after the June update, but suddenly resurfaced again. Mine goes like this, I insert a game, but the tile still says insert disc. I eject, the disc pops out a little then the drive
    eats it back in. Then it works like there's no issue.

    Man, and I thought I didn't have to worry about this after the June update.

    Yea started doing this yesterday. Did the same as yours but I have to keep swapping dvd to game disc till it finally reads the game. About 10 minutes of doing that for it to read the game today.

    Can't read game discs

    Ive had my xbox about 2 months now, with no issues, until I purchased Sniper Elite 3 last night. I had the exact same issue, I just keeps saying insert a disc.

    Pressed Eject - Nothing Happen

    Pressed Eject again after 20 secs - Disc came out

    Put it back in - Worked fine

    Tested all my discs today and powered off at the wall - All working fine

    Not sure what happened or why, but scared the life out of me

  9. Mine had this issue prior to the June update, but after that it went away. Now tell me why after I buy Super Dead Rising 3 Alpha whatever, the issue came up again?

    1) insert disc

    2) No error, tile just says insert disc.

    3) I eject and the disc pops out a little then drive eats the disc again.

    4) Reads it properly this time.

    WTF.

    I've had my new console less than a month and tried today for the first time to install a game from disc. It pulls the disc in and that's it. It doesn't even seem to try and read it. The home screen just says insert disc as if nothing has happened. It ejects
    ok and there's no error message, just won't read it at all. I've tried other blu rays and even my sons dvds but it will read nothing. Guess I'm sending my new console back for replacement. Pretty disappointing.

    My Xbox one started going black after the beginning load up screen. It will only play Somme games now. I believe Xbox has gone to junk with the Xbox one! How do I fix this?
