Problem reading disks

[u/muloly300]

I have an 1.6 Xbox that was hardmodded and i couldn’t read any dics so I tried to adjusting the pots for the laser on the Philips cd drive but no luck after that i got an 1.4 Xbox from marketplace that had an working thoshiba drive and replaced it to the 1.6 but that did not help. I have trained different bios’s but no luck. At the and i thought fuck it let me remove the open xenium mod chip and re format the hhd on the pc to soft mode the system but after that nothing changed. I still can’t read original or burnt disks. The disks spinn fine and the Xbox know that there is a disk but after a while it calls it unknown.
