So I brought my Xbox upstairs and found it had a game in it. My new monitor didnt come yet so I cant check if its working. How boned am I?

Not very. Worst case scenario the disc will be broken when you turn it on. I've done worse stuff to my PS3 with discs inside and they've been fine.

So you carried an Xbox upstairs and it had a game in it. Right? I'm willing to bet that it's fine.

if it breaks from being moved with a disk inside thats some serious bad design...

My one got shipped to japan and back with a disk inside.

here hitting the wrong pothole means your transmission drops out the bottom of your car.

Even If you dont have a monitor, you can still turn on the Xbox and try to eject the disk, also telling us which Xbox you have would be nice... Original, 360, One... I will be able to help you better based on Information.

So, you transported your turned off xbox upstairs, with a cd in it?

Literally nothing should have happened rofl.

 

If it was on while you carried it... then okay, the cd is probably boned, but that's it.

I can't count the number of times I've ridden my bike to a friends house with my old xbox in my backpack with a cd in it. It's seriously nothing to worry about.

360 only really has an issue where you move it when it's powered on, it would scratch the disk as the laser would leave an imprint in the disc due to a poorly designed optical drive. I think it might also be the case with the xbox one, however I think it's not really an issue I think the xbox one wont even read a disc if it detects it being upright to alleviate the issue.

And your wheel broke off and is still in the damn pothole.

haven't hit one so badly my transmission broke, but i know people that have killed tyres and ruined rims because of them.

So yea flying it around the world is probably a better scenario than taking it for a drive in belgium.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Spying on everyone to fight against terrorism is like shooting a mosquito with a cannon

i might have exaggerated that one, but if you're on a road where 160km/h is considered slow by the people around you (belgians and speeding, ah the gloriousness)

and then hit a pothole that reaches down to australia... well.. lets just say we didnt have a reverse gear, or a parking gear anymore...

Power It on, If the disk wont eject when you click the eject button, you can use a paper clip to manually eject the disk. If that doesent work you will need to send It to Microsoft for service.

I don't get that tbh.

I mean i hate driving on the highway because i always have the feeling my car doesn't have too much power, so i avoid them.

But yea when you are driving 160kph the chance you hit a pothole is bigger than being pulled over by the cops.

thats great fun on the highway xD

I don't know if you're trolling or just stupid. It would work. Plus you're in the wrong subform. Use the shitty console peasant sub form or the help subform.

It should be fine, I had a xbox 360 (don't know if you have one or 360) and it said ''Warning don't carry with game in it blah blah blah''. I did it all the time and nothing ever broke you should not have any problems. Unless you have a Xbox one I really don't know about those
