Well havn't used my xbox in ages and finally decided to get it set up. Went into Canmore and bought myself some battlefield 3 and some assassins creed revelations. Get home, my controlers broken fuck. So into Banff today and got myself a controler and a nice play and charge battery pack, come home, xbox doesn't read discs FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK. So after debating whether to torch it run it over with car or jib it do death I decided first to goggle if it was fixable. WOOOO anyways guess you can take it apart and then cotton swab that little dirty whore of a laser and it should work. So I have the entire thing taken apart, hopefully didnt break anything doing so and now i need to clean it. I have cotton swabs but no rubbing alcohol. I have hydrogen peroxide I thinks and also have vodka and vinegar. I Don't wanna kill this thing but am contimplating killing bill gates if this doesn't work. Thanks a ton and plus k for any serious answers



Sparks note, cleaning xbox drive laser, don't have rubbing alcohol need substitute, have vodka hydrogen peroxide or white vinegar. Thanks plus k for respones
 
just run to the nearest store and get some rubbing alcohol. you dont want to bone your xbox over
 
well everything in this town well the 1 store lol is closed already so i guess i'm just gunna try swabbing with no rubbin alch today if it doesnt work i'll take it apart again tomorrow
 
I would prolly just go to the store and get the rubbing alcohol. BUT I bet that vodka would work, as long as its not flavored or anything, vodka really isnt very far from rubbing alcohol.
 
Don't use vodka. Just tough it out and wait until you can go to the store. A little bottle of rubbing alcohol will be $1. It would suck to try and half ass it then get it back together only to find it didn't work. Then you gotta tear into it again and do it the right way anyway.
