    My xbox makes a whirring noise when there is a disk in it


    My xbox suddenly started to make a whirring noise when I put a disk in. The game still launches. This noise only occurs when there is a disk in the xbox. Is this bad and is there a solution?

    :)

    When you insert a disc, the system spins it up to validate it. It keeps the disc spinning for a time, but eventually it will time out and spin down if it's not being used after a few minutes.

    I vacuumed out the disk drive and cleaned the disk and there is no whirring noise. Maybe it was the disk drive and/or the disks being dirty? Im going to play the game to see if anything happens.

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Aaron

    Just to confirm, is this happening with all the discs or only with an specific game?
    If it was happening with all your games, as you said could be some dust inside your console.

    Is always good clean the console from time to time to avoid these issues

    If maybe the issue persists, you need to get inspected your console to see if there is something wrong with your disc drive

    Xbox crashing and glitching

    Edit: I think it is the console and not the game. Also when the console auto turns off, it makes a whirring noise

    Got a new xbox slim completely satisfied except a few things I noticed and wanted to make sure

    but the visual tearing happens on some of my games though haven't tested all of them though, and that whirring noise like its getting ready to play the disk is definitely normal though?
