    I Think I'm Running A Version of EvoX for my X box and I've never purchased any real games until this week. I pop them in my X box and none of them work... some say no disc some say unknown disc...

    Please anybody help

    Old and new games are same. Check your "parental control" in ms dash settings.

    Maybe you just need to replace your laser lens or DVD-Rom drive, have you tried placing an audio CD or DVD movie in your Xbox to see if they are recognized? And it could be your media as well what type of DVDs are you using?

    Take a part your xbox. Cut some wires. This should fix it.

    well it really sounds like a dvd drive issue, if you can get a buddy to lend you his drive, pop it in and try it out.
