    DVD drive matching


    My daughters ex had two 360's that was taken apart is today I figured I would look into it. I put the drive into both of them and it will only play DVD's. How do I tell which console matches to the drive? I've read somewhere the numbers must match. I'm lost
    can anybody point me in the right direction?

    :)

    Please help me with my disc drive.

    Hi, without the matching DVD key on the new board the Xbox will not be able to play games. JTAG would be required to either extract the key or modify the console to play ISO's from a hard drive

    Bluray out of sync

    While trying to watch Godfather 40th Anniversary Collection Pal Region 4, both Bluray and Dvd, the sound was not matching the picture I tried disk 2 of West Wing Season 2, Dvd Region 4, it was better, but didn't 'feel' right

  4. DVD drive matching

    Bowhunter4L hey there DVD drive matching :)

    Sorry to be the bringer of bad news but you wont get any help with this on these forums. It's against the ToU / CoC to tamper with a console and its against the Forum Guidelines to discuss it. Your best option would be to buy a new system to ensure you have
    the best possible experience, and of course, warranty.

    I hope this helps.

    Many thanks,

    how to fix open tray problem. can I buy a new disc drive

    The 360 has a DVD key which matches the drive to the motherboard. You can't just replace the drive as they key won't match and won't play games.

    E66 Error after latest update - Only when I download it, otherwise Xbox works fine

    E66: DVD Drive Error - Dvd drive pairing failure: DVD model, or version does not match that of the version expected by the dashboard. OR the firmware version on the drive is older then the firmware version expected by the dashboard. Make sure the DVD drive
    is of the same version originally included with the console and that it is using either the original firmware included with the console or newer. if drive can eject, read, and write under windows but errors on console, replacing original firmware should fix
    issue.
