    try instead of using the power button to turn on ur xbox, open up the disk tray and put the disk in and and close it this works for mine most of the time

    my suggestion, don't use DVD-RW
    just use either -R or +R, they seem to work better
    and use good quality discs, Memorex is one of the worst

    never had a problem with memorex until about 6 months ago....they must have switched their dye again.
