Not true, its an easy fix:
1. Open your tray with the disk in
2. Close tray
3. As soon as it closes lean your xbox face down on a soft surface(Carpet). Tap it on the ground light. When i say face down i mean with the power button and tray facing the ground. This will rattle your disc laser and make it slide back down into the correct position.
4. Make sure you do step 3 while its reading the disk. It may take a few seconds to read it but it should work. After it reads it just set it back up like you had it.,

mine dont allways open i have to hit it most of the time

Also, it doesnt hurt your xbox at all. Just tap it lightly on a carpet so your laser slides back down into the right spot. Mine does it all the time, i have to do it almost everytime for the past month of two.

oooh this happened to me just open tray and shove it in real fast and it will align the laser back always works for me rep if it worked.

I always used to keep hitting mine as the disc was being read.
Worked all the time.

Well if you knew anything, you would know that the disc is held together inside by a magnet. You would also know that over time, that magnet looses its electrical charge and the laser also gets weak. therefore the laser cant shoot the light through the diode to read the media on the disc because the magnetic force isnt holding the disk in place.

A carpet? Are you kidding me man? The Motherboard is a 12V board. any static electricity would fry that damn thing so fast.

all in all, he does need a new disc drive. Dont listen to the seahorse.

Open your tray and then close it WITHOUT a disk.

Once it's done loading and says "Open Tray" on the screen, open the tray and put a disk in and it should work.

If you want to REALLY fix it for good them you need to take it apart.

once you do that get the disc tray and 2 screws ate behind the eye laser tighten the right one FIXED
