Hey skip to about 20 minutes for the different problems and fixes available to get the xbox 360 slim working again. This video contains a step by step tutorial on how to open your xbox 360 slim and how to fix the open tray problem which will void the warrantee if you still have one.
This shows you an alternative way on how to fix the “perfect circle” that the xbox system makes when it either falls or gets tilted with a game inside. I took one of my old games, motoGP and used it as a dummy to prove that it does work . Make sure the dremel speed is at its lowest. The rubbing compound is generally used for automotive painting. i dont know where you can get it at, probably a local auto store or online. The disc actually has two “perfect circles” the outside isnt as visible through the camera. Goodluck n enjoy Toothpaste might work if you find the grimmy ones. Smooth toothpaste, from what i can imagine, wouldnt be so effective cause your basically using the paste to slightly sand down the scratches. Im using; Dremel 3M Super duty Rubbing Compound Dremel screw attachment w/ buffer screwed to it
Another serious problem with the Xbox 360s, one that doesn’t affect the console but could destroy the games you’ve paid a hefty wad of cash for. What’s worse, Microsoft won’t accept responsibility and in fact say it’s your fault, not theirs. Complaints also extend outside the UK This problem isn’t restricted to the UK either. The EU’s Consumer Commissioner has written to Microsoft twice, asking why she’s receiving so many complaints about the Xbox 360. Further still, in the United States, lawyers are organising a class action against the company. The law firm believes that Microsoft’s stance, that Xbox 360 owners are cavalierly throwing their consoles around the room, doesn’t make sense. It has spoken to a number of people who have insisted they didn’t move the console at all.
