Disc not running. Xbox one x.

NO! Unlike some games that have an Xbox One version that will upgrade to the the S|X version if you put it in a series X, NBA2K for S|X is a complete different version than the Xbox One version and it will not work if you put the disc inside of an Xbox One. Xbox One cannon run a Series X game and putting a Series X disc inside an X1 will not install the X1 version.

Hi RobPerrine,

Sorry to be asking the obvious, but will your Xbox play other game discs (just to make sure that it's not the console's disc drive that's the problem)?

If your console is playing / installing other game discs OK, then it would be the Fallout disc itself that needs attention.

Is the disc dirty or scratched? It may need cleaning if dirty. If it's scratched (and relatively new) then I'd suggest taking it back to the store you purchased it from and request a replacement or refund.

There are some game shops that can attempt repairs of scratched up game discs, but doing this would invalidate any guarantee that may be in force on the game.

If your console can't play any game discs, then the problem is most likely with the disc drive and your Xbox will require service.

Good luck. Hope you get it working.

EDIT: Sorry just worked out that Fallout New Vegas was an Xbox 360 title.

Xbox One doesn't actually play Xbox 360 games directly off the disc. It runs such games inside an "emulator" of sorts from the Xbox One hard drive.

I've never actually done this myself, but my understanding is if you put an Xbox 360 disc into an Xbox One, it will download an "update" for the game, which is actually a ported version of the game including the required emulator.

Fair warning: not all Xbox 360 games are compatible with Xbox One like this, but Fallout New Vegas is on the compatibility list, so it should work.

Your Xbox One will have to be connected to the internet to do this. Is it online?

Hope this helps.

All Xbox One games with exception of Kinect based games, work on the Series X.

Note that all Xbox One games have to be installed. No games can be run directly off the disc.

I forgot to mention it’s my new Xbox series X and it runs other discs just fine

My Scorpio Xbox One X (which arrived today) has been running pretty quietly, perhaps even quieter than my Xbox One S.

Is it running hot? Be sure to give it some "breathing room" so it can ventilate enough air to keep cool.

Do you have a disc inside? Is that making the grinding noise? If so, do other discs cause the same noise?
