By its nature this device could fit in almost any sub forum but I chose here because the question is regarding the optical drive...
So I bought this fat 360 cheap at a yard sale last week. I knew nothing about these before but have done a fair bit of reading since. The unit operates fine except will not read games but will play dvd movies. This seems very common.
In order to decide whether to order a new laser I tweaked the pot for the laser expecting to see some small success at least if the laser was dying, but got no change.
So my question is, is it possible the laser is still at fault ? Also I don't understand the boot process but I think a game disc will spin quicker after detection but this never does.
It's also possible this drive is a replacement and the PO didn't transfer the drive keys which makes this a parts unit.
What you think ?
