  1. Disk drive extremely loud during install


    Hello fine folks!

    Starting today, my disk drive is emitting a very loud hum (measured at 71dB) while installing a game (Wolfenstein). Never happened before now. This has me extremely concerned because if it's that loud, there is generally an issue. I have restarted both the
    install and the system itself.

    Do you know if this points to my Xbox failing? Or is it just a weird thing installing this game?

    :)

    Monkey Island se disk

    My old xbox is loud and when i install the game to the hard drive, it still uses the disk all the time making it impossible to play. Anyone know how to fix it?

    Loud Disk Drive

    If you have issues with your disc drive (and that happens with every disc you use) you can send your console for repairs:

    dvd drive on slim loud?

    Hi I have the new Xbox 360 S console recently purchased about a month ago and my Xbox 360's DVD drive gets very loud only on certain games. The Forza 4 disc and Halo 3 Platinum Hits disk makes the disk drive very loud, but when I put in Halo 4 it's a normal
    volume. When it gets really loud it almost sounds like it's vibrating a lot. I even installed Forza 4 to the hard drive and when I first start it up it's still pretty loud. It only subsides after briefly playing. Is this normal for certain games to make
    the disk drive spin louder or is something wrong with my disk drive? Or maybe my disks are scratched?

    Burning games to hard drive before playing them?

    first off, you don't BURN games to a hard drive. you install them, it is two very diffrent things.

    2nd... during boot up of a game that has been installed to the hard drive, the xbox checks to make sure that a legit disk is in the tray. then it accesses the game on the hard drive, games are programmed diffrently so how the disk is read may vary from title
    to title.

    Original Xbox games on 360 Slim

    Hi Egodzilla,

    Have you tried to install the game to your hard drive? Many times this will resolve any playing issues with the disk, however if the Xbox can't read the disk during installation you will not be able to install it (obviously...). Have you tried to use the
    game on another Xbox? If playable there, you can install the game to a USB flash drive and then use it on your Xbox. Just trying to give you options - hope this helps. Cheers!

    So...the ridiculous amount of disc swapping...

    Yes, this is extremely annoying. Have had to switch disks 4 times in about 2 hours. And this is a definite problem (one among many with this game). All they have to do is release an update that will allow you (when you install both disks to the hard drive),
    To just have disk #1 in the DVD player (to show you have the game) and when needed will switch seamlessly between both copies on the hard drive. I no, I no wishful thinking.
