I have 2 new movies I have tried to play in my Xbox..

Both of them skip, get stuck, or just stop.

I KNOW the cd's are clean.
Do I need to clean out the Xbox on a regular basis?
How do i do that?

I have no idea but I did find this:

Cleaning your Xbox DVD drive

If you are getting constant dirty disk errors, what do you have to loose, give this a try. The majority of the drives are not really dirty cleaning it will not fix the problem, they are getting out of adjustment or just getting weak. Try not to get your hopes up, too much sometimes you will be improving a DVD from constant errors to less frequent glitching and pausing during movies and games. But I guess that is better than nothing.

See disassembly procedure here for details on how to get at your Xbox DVD drive.

Are you going to get the new XBox?

I saw an ad for it in the ToysRUs circular last week (along with some great coupons for Black Friday shoppers!) Everyone is talking about it on other boards I'm on - it just came out today and is already going on eBay for $1000s - crazy! I guess people were waiting in line and everything.

oh GOD no

not until next year?
maybe the year after. hehehe

but not this year.
I refuse to pay that much.

I got sucked into the high priced XBOX when it first came out.. paying about 300 .. when the very next year it was 149.99.. >grrr<

haha, I know! I had a DREAM that I got a bunch of Xboxes and sold them online for a ton of $$. Then I woke up and was still poor - lol!

The Toys R Us give away seems like a decent shot at getting one...then you can play it, or sell it and put your kids through college! Wink
