- I found that this was really the only way to get my Xbox to read games again so I thought I would pass on the knowledge. I didn't edit it to show that it doesn't always work on the first try and sometimes its a struggle but it is what it is lol Like or comment if it helped you out because I know it helped me!!! Happy Gaming and TeRav17 on the gamertag

Thank you sir! You've brought my 12-year-old 360 back to life. Can't believe this actually worked.
Its 2021 and we still fixing things by smacking them xD
This still works in 2019, but sadly only temporarily.
It didn’t work at all for me

No worries guys. No Xbox 360's were harmed in the making of this video

You are a life saver!! I completly took my xbox apart and cleaned it and it still didnt work! Then I tried this and it worked on the first try! Thanks man you have a new subscriber!

to only know he uploads every 8 years
So what? At least he post some helpful stuff for the average people.
snipezilla69 true true he might do a video about fixing the Xbox one s on my graduation in four years
2019, and it's a trusted method that's still holding strong. Thanks
This is so helpful. I was trying to play COD Finest Hour but it won't let me, so I do the exact process of fixing the disk mechanism and just keep taping, and it works! Thx bro!
It’s 2021 and this still works thank you so much bro you’re the best! Oh and by the way if anyone’s wondering you don’t have to take it out and put it on its side you can do it while it’s laying flat
I laughed so much watching you hittin your xbox until I tried it and it actually worked!!! Thanks so much man you're the boss. Stay safe
Lol This Is The Funniest Video I Ever Seen xD

Out of all the CZcams videos I watched, this one was the only one that worked... Thnx man..
Lmao 2019 and I’m still playing my Xbox 360 and YES !! This worked for me lol legend bro 😂✊🏽
Ikr
2021 hERE ❤️
I found my old 360 and it wasnt reading, found this dude and all of a sudden it worked lmao
There’s something about keeping on a older console for me it’s relieving to know I’m not a slave to the industry and can still find entertainment playing my 360. I’d rather invest my $$$ on assets rather than a new console every other year. Power to the throwback peeps out there
Me: *slaps Xbox to get it reading*
Xbox: *Harder senpai~~~*
Me: what
Xbox: *what*
Wow! My 360 Elite just started doing this today. I tried your method and it worked on the first try. I didnt even pull it out and stand it up. I just tapped on the top where it is. Awesome! Thanks man
Good shit!
Yoooo it works!!!! Thank you so much..... Hadn't played games in my 360 for 5 months and it finally works. Thank you and Merry Christmas
You can really put on a sick beat when he's pounding that thing lol
omg this actually worked for real wtf you're a genius
Oh my god, you're a lifesaver! Thanks so much, man! This totally helped my Xbox 360 out. 👍
TeRav17 thanks man it wasn't reading at first then on the 3rd try it worked. Thanks a lot your a hero in my books.
It says "Play Game"
And when i try it says "Disc is Unreadable"
Works 2020. Greate 👍

Sir 😆🙌🏾 you are the best..worked on the first try..you earned a new subscriber. Thank you 😊
2019 people *takes gun shoots xbox*
calm down jamal dont pull out the nine
I cant believe this actually worked it might take a few tries but eventually it will work (Ps: you really need to smack the crap out of your xbox for it to work but dont worry it wont scratch the disc or anything)
Glad you didn't give up after the first try! I know it's crazy that it works but it does and eventually you won't even have to smack it anymore, it'll fire up right away! Badass
thx bro
It just eventually works it has nothing to do with hitting it XD
wow lol, it's 2am and I'm trying to fix it. I'm about to wake up my whole family 👍
Dec 2020 just worked for me!!! Thank you sooo much. You’re amazing
Haha been sat here for 45 mins tryna find a solution to get my disc to work then watched this video, tried it straight away and worked first time lol good job 👍🏾
2019 and it work thanks man
man u are a masterpiece ✌😍 it worked with me 😂
its 2021 and this still works, legendary
This worked! I was hittin with some beat a little slower than your tempo and it lit up the game...took about 10m . Thanks...arming cannons sir...all planes go in!
OMG G THX DONT CARE IF ITS 2017 IT FIXED MY XBOX I CAN RUN MY DISCS NOW THX SO MUCH not lying I actualy did it
this happend to me a year ago and still today i use it and i still have to hit it, when you put the disc in it makes a noise, you have to hit the xbox not hard lol but just bang it right before it makes the sound. how i found this out was when this happen i got so mad that i just hit my xbox and it worked 😂 tho i have a ps4 now i still use my xbox
Ace Lorenzo sidewards or layed on the ground
Thanks dude! I was trying to play some black ops 2 and this helped!
It still works in 2020. You are a lifesaver, my friend.
No prob glad it worked! Also, since I've done it so many times, it fires up now without having to beat it anymore! Hopefully it does the same for you after time
+TeRav17 lml SHIT HEAD
+TeRav17 thx bro rlly worked (i subbed to u)
can help me it doesn't work ima die
+TeRav17 it didnt work for me
THANK YOU SO MUCH YOUR LITERALLY MY HERO.
Dont do this. Hitting the crap out of your Xbox is just gonna make it worse. It might work for a few times but, after a couple times the Xbox won't read the disc anymore. And also don't move your Xbox around when you have a disc inside. It might scratch up and get circles that go around the disc.
actually after a few times of doing this it has worked without having to do it every time for the last year plus #fixed
what jan said happened to me and 6 of my games got rings
Bullshit, for me it worked
You just need to punch gently, but strong enought to make disc pop up a little bit so laser can see it.
2020 and dude is still a legend!😎
Whew!!! This morning I beat my xbox up , I had to keep hitting it, the hits got harder and I almost cried bc I thought I broke it so word to the wise, cool yourself off and take a break and dont go in a rage bc u want to play online.
I am happy to comment this does work, it took about 33mins and a prayer! I noticed when u smack and wack df out of it , it will say “reading” for awhile that means it is working, it may take time but when u it gets stuck on “reading” do not open it , this will eventually read the disc and u can happily play your game! 😎 So I appreciate the tip on how to fix this issue! 💪🏽
&Dont put the same disc back in I switched games twice the second time is when it got to read the disc😉
Let's gooo
you know, simply placing rocks on the top of the console isn't bad either...
What kind of rocks are we talking about here ? If your speaking of crack rocks im all in .....
when i was doing it it actualy worked thanks man you got annother sub
Thanks you saved my life with this video, it worked a treat for my husband’s Xbox 360 👍🏾
Worked on 1st try! Thank you, liked and subbed 👍
You gotta hit it harder pain! You really gotta smack the shit out of it!
TeRav17 You're an Idiot! Some poor kid out there is going to ruin his or her Xbox because of you.
GuitarGuys7299 for one: their xbox already doesn't work if they're watching this video. Two: it has worked for MORE people than NOT. Three: you, are in fact, an idiot sir. Thank you, good day
when you smacked it the dust fell of
+TeRav17 my mom said that I shouldn't do this because it could not something else out of place and ruin the xbox further
TeRav17
The village called and they want you back.
thank you so much bro i should pay you
I'm glad i found this video! It worked the very first try. It played my halo games but not black ops 2 for some reason. It does now though lol. Thanks a lot!
Hell yea! I'm all about some first person shooters!
Thanks! It’s the end of 2019 and this worked for me! Now my kids can watch their movies!
OOOOOOOOOO! WAS EXPECTING THIS TO BE A SCAM TO BREAK YOUR XBOX! BUT NOOOOO, THE AWNSER IS TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF IT!

Suppose the banging is releasing the over powerful battery from the game to allow the drive to spin?

When you see "reading disc" stop tapping! - otherwise you will get "unrecognized disc"

i absolutely started dying from laughter watching this but ironically it was the fix to my xbox 360 lmao . Thanks man!!
my XBOX works for the first time but then when I want to put another disc it said open tray so do I have to keep doing it over again to make it work?
Thank you for this, it worked second try saved me buying a new one :)
It's 2022 and this method still works, my child really wanted to play Ratatouille... now she can...thx to this video.
Remind me of the original Nintendo.
That's awesome, happy to hear!
Wow after an hour of being pissed this worked on the first try I think I love you.
Hahahaha
I was upset that smacking my newly acquired old 360 worked by smacking it...i felt like an old man
Oh my god this actually worked! I have 2k and it hasn't worked since I bought it but I did your method and now it works!
Can't believe that worked! Thanks for the help!

Thank u so much for this info!!!
👌
damn now i can play all the clasic cods again
Is your xbox still making the vrooooom noise when it reads the disc? Mine doesnt and just brings me to the white screen saying to insert the disc into an xbox 360. I think mines a goner
I'm not sure dude, I haven't played on the Xbox in years. Switched to PC
I like the noice of a grinded disk
