Ok I was bought an aracde 360 for xmas so its just the basic package I have purchased more later on including a 20Gb hadd for it

Now everything has been fine up intil recently when it would refuse to play forza 2 the Power button would blink rapidly and all it would say is open tray

I thought nothing of it and tried GTA4 which played so I thought it a bad disc, So bought another copy of forza motorsport which is installed on the hard drive and the same happened.

Now 2 out of 3 games are like this on my system unless I pull the hard drive out.

Os this a hard drive issue or a DVD laser issue?

Try clearing out your cache first although the only negative aspect to clearing the cache is that all game updates are also cleared out and have to be downloaded again the next time you play the game but this solved the problem for me playing this game,
details on how to do it here

Well to be honest I would take the console back where you had it from get it replaced and then try again because this sounds like its a console / read error .. after this and it still not working then its the hard drive.

How old is the 360? Have you tried running it from the disk only (uninstall from the HDD?)
