I have some problems Sometimes i get this error cannot read disc error please clean it or something

and Sometimes when i load red dead redemption its all bugged for example i walk to a mission and i just there and nothing happens or i pull my gun out and zoom and i just hold my gun like nothing happens. What can be causing these problems? I bought my xbox back in 2005 I go online it works nice but single player is driving me nuts, I havent even been able to reach the end of arcade mode for SSf4 in arcade since it crashes me

Consider yourslef lucky for having 360 last so many years.

The old 360 is almost certain to fail, many people that bough launch already had to send for repair 4-5 times.

Buy the 360 SLIM or change for Sony side with the almight proven PS3 slim

The disk drive is the first thing to fail in any old console.

Your disc drive is busted. Try giving it E74 (all consoles are still covered for it) so MS can send you a refurbished one.

It's and error code that displays when the GPU is busted, kind of like RROD. Before you try it, I suggest you check if your console is still covered by it on xbox.com, mine is.

If you do this, I suggest you wait a bit. The Xbox 360 S seems to have some overheating problems for some reason.

I really like my jasper arcade.. you can get one for 150 + 50 amazon credit right now... you should do that and pick up a cheap 120gb drive or something
