X -Box problem - The Punters Lounge

CLARETKID · 07-03-2008, 16:41

I have a problem with my x-box whenever I put an x-box game in it loads as normal but when the game starts it pauses and i have to turn the power off. It allows me to play the demo games but games i have brought they all pause. Any ideas???? thanks in advance.

Did the xbox have a hard disk?

(I presume we're not talking Xbox360 here)

Sorry its an Xbox360, so yes it does have an hard drive. It could well be the laser. Not sure how to rectify this but i have contacted the XBox support line, and am expecting a reply within 24 hours. Cheers.
