CD's scratched by Xbox360?

Anyone have any tips?
My xbox was leaving a ring of solid scratches around my discs;
About ¼ of the way in from the outter edge,
Once they were scratched they no longer worked.

After my free game that came with it was scratched terribly,
I brought it back,
Now im finally going to take the chance and get another!

Anyone have any tips on keeping my discs from being scratched?
(From the xbox itself)

put it down horizontally and don't move it while its on, or the disk is in it and the xbox is off, thats all you can do.maxmax1234

I didnt move it last time, and it was down horizontally.
This time I bought a Xbox wall mount...
Hopefully it was just my Xbox,
And this time it'll run smoothly ;]

I read the topic title as "Cd's scracthed my Xbox360". >_>-eddy-

u can also install the game to your hardrive and that wont scatch it because it doesnt rotate when you install the game

ha ha man look on google and see that microsoft was just sued for knowingly selling consoles that scratch disks. i guess these were with the older 360's before they started fixing them.patrickhorta87

unfortunatelly its not just the older models, my arcade 1st one , not the 1 under the tree i hope that doesnt do it but every time i put a brand new 360 game in it it makes a smaller scratch. the games work but the point is its making small tiny scratch about 1/4 of the way to the center ,

and its all the way around,

not deep ones like if you move it , i didnt move it these scratches just happen . nothing microsoft can do about it i made a call , concerning problems with my first one, back in 06 they said we do not cover scratched disc ,

the 360 is not gonna be fixed any time soon

Some xbox 360 scratches games without moving them. I had one that scratched disks too, but when I tried to get it fixed, Microsot wanted $100.

if you read what i worte they just got sued for knowing that the 360's scratches cd's. WHEN ITS NOT BEING MOVED. they knowingly sold consoles that did this. mine has never done this though. i play with my horizontal and have no problems.
