Samsung 605 Not reading originals ¾ of the time

[ihaveanosebleed]

I have an Xbox here with a strange problem, it takes a few tries to get original game CD’s to boot. It usually just goes to the dash after a while. When it’s not working Boxplorer will show the files on the Drive but gets error trying to read anything after waiting some time analyzing the disk. When the drive does decide to read originals, analyze is fast and it reads files perfect! Also the drive reads DVD-R’s, CD-R’s, and CD-RW’s fine, all the time. I cleaned the laser, no different.

Anyone else get problems with Xbox original disks?

What did you clean the lens with?
Maybe you should sell it on eBay (http://www.ebay.com/) and buy another one.
