does cleaning disks with toothpaste work or is it a myth?
No, toothpaste is for polishing out scratches. For cleaning use soapy water.
ok thanks, its just recently on some of my games i was getting disk unreadable.
As mentioned could be your drive or if your playing backups use verbatim as others can cause disc read errors.
Also when cleaning do not use a circular motion, this can wipe data from the disc.
ove up in straight lines instead from middle out.
100% Isopropyl Alcohol and a Micro-Fiber cloth :)
i got a new xbox back form microsoft my 5th now, the drive has started letting me play two games now that the old one wouldn't. I took my gh3 disk to gamestation to get it cleaned but it made the disk worse :confused:
wow, never knew the toothpaste thing. will have to try that!
