My friend's Xbox will occasionally not be able to read a game disc. It seems to only happen with certain discs though. What usually happens is the game will play for a while and then all of the sudden it'll say the disc can't be read anymore.
That happened with MGS2:Substance, Shenmue 2, and a couple of other games IIRC.
The majority of games work perfectly fine in his Xbox though.

A burned game CD, or a music CD. If its a game cd you can't unless you have a mod-chip in your box.

Sorry buddy, I would love to help but there are these stinkin rules. I've been told before by the mods that mod chip stuff is not permitted.
