    xbox one won't read games after switching discs


    i bought my xbox one the day it was released and spent $500 on it. it worked fine till about 6 months ago where after switching games and trying to launch them id get the "do you own this game" pop up. switching to energy saver mode and hard reseting fixed
    that. recently it takes me about 45 minutes of hard resets, power mode switches, and ejecting discs to make one game work. I'm tired of this and microsoft wants me to pay $140 to have it repaired. the console was never dropped, damaged or banged in ANY way
    and they want me to pay for a faulty disc drive. I'm so over this I'm considering getting rid of it and buying a PS4. has anyone had this issue or have any solutions?

    :)

    Xbox One Won't Read Discs

    My Xbox One has run into a rather aggravating issue that I can't fix, and can't find anything about online. It won't read my discs no matter what I do.

    It can't be my optical drive. I uninstalled my Disc related games and installed them all again, it wouldn't be able to install if it can't read them.

    Now, when I try to play any game that is on disc, the Xbox immediately crashes me back to the dashboard with no error code... Nothing. I have done the basics such as flushing the RAM with a cold restart and such, but to no avail. Why is my Xbox One being
    such a **** and limiting itself to playing Digitally installed games only?!

    XBOX ONE: Disc or Digital Download? - Do you need to keep Disc inside after installing to play?

    Hi, you do not need to switch disc as all games are installed to the Xbox One's hard drive to play; you won't have to insert the disc to run the game after that initial process.

    HELP ME PLEASE! XBOX ONE BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY NOT WORKING AT ALL?!?!?!!?!?!?

    Hi,

    It's not the discs it's your console. If your console can not read DVD movies then it won't read Xbox 360 games either. DVD movie discs use the same type of discs that 360 games use (DVD-9).

    The Xbox One has two lasers to read discs. One for Blu-rays - which Xbox One discs games are made of - and one for reading DVD's and Xbox 360 games.

    None of my games are working

    Thank you

    The xbox 360 i have will read and play any DVD but it will not play any games. I've downloaded the updates and installed them successfully. No games working at all, won't read the game disc and always switches back to play DVD.

    Can you help?

    Can't install red dead redemption 1

    Hi,

    Do other BC Xbox 360 game discs work on your Xbox One? For the Xbox One to recognise the game and download it from Live it must:

    • Be able to read the disc. Check if the disc is dirty or damaged
    • Have a working Optical drive capable of reading Xbox 360 discs. Try other BC discs or test a DVD movie.

    The Xbox One has two diodes for reading discs in the optical Blu-ray Drive. A red laser is used to read Xbox 360 and DVD movies and a blue laser to read Xbox One games and Blu-ray movies. If the diode for reading DVD's is faulty, BC Xbox 360 discs won't
    work.

    MICROSOFT? - DVD drive noises after march update - what's happening?

    My Xbox One has also been having issues with reading discs. Ever since the march update, any time I switch discs I get error code (0x21) saying that my disc is dirty or damaged. The only way I am able to get the system to read the disc is to do a hard reset,
    which includes unplugging the system. On top of that, anytime I switch discs I have to do the same reset, and I am unable to even play the same game after turning the console off via its regular sleep mode.
