    Xbox 360 Errors

    Just wondering if anyone can give me some advice with my 360.
    I bought mine from a member on this site and it was pre flashed with extreme 5.3, since I never go on live I have never bothered to update
    Everything has been working great until recently, all the games I have burned have worked with the exception on 1 or 2 which I have had to re-burn and they have worked.
    I have recently tried to burn bioshock and halo3. Both games start fine and I get the introduction and menus etc but when I try to start the games I get errors
    On Bioshock it gives me the unreadable disk error asking me to clean the disk after I have adjusted the screen brightness.
    On Halo3 I get an error when trying to play a solo mission, the mini games work fine but if I try to run a solo mission I can choose skill level then I get the error.
    I have burned the disks on both verbs and aone disks and both have the same problem, saying this I have also burned Fifa08, NHL08 and Conan and these have worked fine.
    Is my laser on its way out or is my firmware the problem?
    Thanks for any help!

    laser issue mate! If it was a FW issue then the 360 wouldn't load at all and give error E64 or something along those lines! If its booting games, then its also not a stealth patch problem.

    So boils down to one thing....laser is dying! Buy a new one (about £15/£20), and it only takes 5 minutes to fit!

    The console is less than a year old (November 2006) should the laser go so soon?
    I suppose it is better than 2 red lights though
    WOuld microsoft fix this under warranty even though it has been "updated"?

    Does sound like a laser issue - Microsoft won't fix it unless you have the warranty sticker intact?
