« on: January 01, 2007, 12:07:00 PM »

My xbox 360 disk drive won't open when the system is upright, it's sticking

somehow.it only opens after a few tries which is very annoying. It opens

perfectly when layed flat... This is the only slight problem which I'm sure

is easily fixed... The system is in perfect working order otherwise

Can anybody advise please!!

Thanks in advance

Try taking off the faceplate. Maybe it is catching on it.

I'm having this exact same problem, it's not the faceplate becasue i've tried it without the faceplate and no go. But what is this rubberband you guys speak of? is it inside the drive already or do we have to do the rubberband mod  and it should fix this problem?
