My Fifa 09 disk says unreadable during playing i dropped the 360 while it was on

basically i have the dreaded ring around my disk, it will load up fine but when i start to play a match it says unreadable is there a solution to this problem or anything that i can do? All information would be appreciated

Thank You

I done the same with my Far Cry 2....but depending on how bad it is theres a solution....My game wasnt too bad..

So I got toothpaste, put it on a tissue, Covered ALL of the shiny side of the disc with it....Rubbed it in (only rub UP AND DOWN...rubbing circles will mess up the coding) washed it off with warm water....repeated all that about five times...cleaned it with vodka and it was nearly perfect...

there was still some scratches on the disc but the bad parts of the rings on the disc were gone and the game is still working perfectly after about 3 weeks....

Try it man...nothing can go wrong anyway...and if that doesnt work just bring it back...

get it repaired at gamestation if your in the uk its only £3

You probably don't want your disc to smell like vodka when you bring it back though.

thanks for everyone's help it is very much appreciated.... in response to the guy who said to take it to gamestation i took my disc to a similar place (Blockbuster) they saw the ring and wouldn't put it in the machine, has anyone had experience with this machine working for this sort of problem i suppose it is a good sign that the disk will start up and everything, once again thank you ..... i may even go the toothpaste route i saw a video on this on youtube....

any comments on the disk cleaning machines?
