    Launch Xbox One disc drive doesn't always work


    My Xbox One fails to read my Blu-ray and Xbox One games on a regular basis. It started off ok but then it would take it about 3 or 4 tries for it to read the disc. Now it takes over a dozen! What can I do to get this fixed?

    :)

    Xbox one DVD drive not reading

    DVD drive doesn't read some discs, have to hold disk for a second then let it go, even then doesn't always work. Videos online shows disc not seating in drive, support says no record of this problem.

    It sounds like your disc drive is going, I had a similar problem but mine would also make the grinding noise so to speak and not read the discs. I literally just mailed mine out today for repairs.

    If that is the case you will need to create a service order, either calling support 1 800 469 9269 or going to
    myservice.xbox.com/.../welcome.aspx where you can create the order yourself. I recommend you, either option you choose, specify the issue happens VERY OFTEN (if not always) so
    they can be aware of that

    Yup this also has been happing to me until yesterday it just completely stopped working all together. My warranty just ran out too. So send it in as soon as possible or you will have pay 135$ on top of what you already paid 500$ for the console. Wish they
    would stand up and fix it for free it was faulty from the DAY one, no pun intended for my Day one edition console.

    Yep, my warranty expires in less than a week. Got lucky in that sense I guess. Sending it in tomorrow. Went through this twice with the 360 and now the One. Wish MS would fix this issue they keep having!!

    Hey this worked for me on my day one Xbox ONE. Same issue doesn't read the game or blu ray. This sounds weird but when inserting the disc hold it and wait till it tries to pull it in and hold for about two seconds. After awhile you will notice the disc will
    be sucked in a little bit faster (might be hard to notice) and then it begins to read. I have noticed if you just allow it to suck in the disc normally the disc goes and it doesn't even read or know the disc is even in there.

    I never knew I had this problem till I purchased a second game and took the disc out for the first time which was a week after my crappy warranty ran out.

    If it's not reading it at all and you don't hear any grinding noises check to see if there's an update available to the Blu-Ray software. My disk drive started making grinding noises a couple of weeks ago. Sometimes I have to tap the top of it to get it
    to grab the disk and spin up like normal.

    The circle ring around my CoD BO2 disc

    The circle ring around your disc usually happens if you move the xbox with the disc in the drive. The only way to fix this is to take it to a game store that repairs discs, they usally take a layer of the disc, but it doesn't always work.

    Disc Drive App

    Hi, There has never been a disc drive app that tells you if the disc in the drive or not. If the drive recognizes a disc, then it will show, if it doesn't, then it wont. That is how it has always been.
    Nope, ive had an Xbox One since day one. It originally had a disc drive app. If you wipe an original xbox one (day one edition) back to factory defaults and dont connect it to the internet you get the app... aaaaaaand I literally just watched some test the
    disc which I thought was faulty at a game store doing exactly that. It worked on their machine.

    Im just getting fed up of disc drive faults. I would have zero issue if it consistently worked.

    GEARS OF WAR 3 DISC PROBLEM!!NEED HELP

    sunsprie it does sound like disc drive is on the way out... try the above though. use a dvd cleaner and then try it. if it doesn't work then its the disc drive failing. it starts off with only one disc not working which is why most people are like but it
    can't be it's only one disc. it will soon start happening to others.

    saying that though it could also be a sign of 3 red lights as that happened to our launch console and then it red ringed and got repaired and there was no problems to the disc drive after

    Xbox One X won't load read discs unless I hard reboot if Energy Saver power mode is enabled

    Tried that but it doesn't work until I do a hard shutdown.

    I can hear the disc drive working when I put a disc in. But the game icon never appears and trying to launch the game gives me the "insert disc" error.
