Hi there everyone, great forum you have here. I am hoping that you can lend a hand to a man in need. :cry:

I tried the rubber band trick on my xbox 360 a while back and it worked like a charm :) I was very excited to see it boot my backups etc etc. Unfortunately, after a little while I started getting problems again (Open Tray, Unreadable Disk) that kind of thing. So i open it up and remove the rubber band. All of a sudden, none of my backups will play (not even the verbatims) and I have trouble playing other discs aswell. If I assume that the problem is related to the rubber band trick i am lead to the conclusion that it may be the motor that is not functioning correctly or.... I really dunno, I'm just out of ideas. I have the Toshiba-Samsung drive btw. Please, any help would be greatly appreciated. Out of despiration i already ordered one of these: http://www.mod-chip.com/en/xbox_360_laser_lenses.php and it will be arriving shortly this week. Please help!!! :roll:

I had a prob with unplayable disk. I also thought it was the laser. BUT found prob with the gear that moves laser back and fourth. Read my post here and check out the pic. Might be worth a try.
