Quinn Posted February 5, 2009 Report Posted February 5, 2009 Ok, So my Oblivion disk has been busted for longer than I have had my Xbox live (about 9 months) and I'm royally pissed about it. My friends dad had it for a while but never got around to fixing it. I'm thinking of taking it to Blockbuster to have professionally repaired, but I was wondering if anyone had any proven methods of fixing disks. If you were wondering the damage is from my little cousins (the oldest being about 6 at the time) playing with plastic cars on it. Aka it has a lot of little scratches on it. Ideas?
Dan Posted February 5, 2009 Report Posted February 5, 2009 Deodorant, believe it or not Dunno why, it just works.

Dan Posted February 5, 2009 Report Posted February 5, 2009 (edited) like Axe Dry? What do you do? Yeah, just spray the disk a few times from like 6" away, then leave it to dry, it should work. EDIT: No not dry, thats anti-perspirant. Just normal deodorant. Edited February 5, 2009 by xDansomee

Yep, no guarentee that it will work... It could just ruin your disk, it sometimes works, then other times it will just break your disk. Edited February 5, 2009 by xDansomee
SotG Caboose Posted February 5, 2009 Report Posted February 5, 2009 Put it in the microwave then dip it in eggs, after freeze it then put a copy of halo 3 in your disk tray, then hotswap for oblivion.

Quinn Posted February 7, 2009 Author Report Posted February 7, 2009 I brought my disk into Blockbuster after no other at home methods were successful. I brought it in, and picked it up about 1hr 15 mins later and it looked and worked as good as new. It only cost me $4.50 (Canadian) after taxes. So great deal on that
