sounds like the faceplate is crooked or misaligned some how. When you go to open the drive (with the face plate on), do you see where it is catching or hitting the face plate ??

it tries to open but it seems to jam on the corner but the faceplate seems ok

If mine comes back and messes up again, I'm through with it. I don't play enough anymore to put up w/ the unreliable machine. And Rod, I'll be on my 6th... the last one was partially my fault, but still, the 4 prior weren't.

It still amazes me that people don't know how to protect themselves from hardware problems.

1) Get your system at Gamestop with a one year warranty and you can get a new system if anything is wrong. Also, before the warranty is up return your system for a brand new one.

OR

2) If you DID NOT get a warranty, goto best buy or walwart buy a second 360 and swap the system barcode on the back and return the lemon system.

Does it open when you select the open tray command in the dashboard with the controller? That will tell if the face plate is preventing it from opening or if it is just the button not hitting the right spot on the console.

I have my launch 360 that still runs great and my EB warranty expires next month. I would take advantage of the warranty except i'm still hearing that new 360's are still crapping out.

I like the Target/Bestbuy warranties where you get your full credit back to the store.
