I recently had an argument with my wife and accidently pushed my sons xbox 360 on the floor. He trys to play GTA V , but whenever he presses the pause menu it says to replace the storage device and reinstall the game. Also , there are some cracking noises when ever he presses the pause button and then the xbox goes quiet and re starts the game , or when the xbox is using the CD Component. I think that when it fell on the floor , the CD drive was damaged or something in the back of it was damaged because the cracking noise is coming some where near the CD Drive. Can someone please help us?

EDIT: Sorry , it is a rattling noise. Something in the XBOX rattles when it is not suppose to.

Now , i tried hitting the CD Drive and now GTA V FREEZES on start up. I think something in the front of the console has been damaged.

Aahd Tahar, where do you want to start? I would suggest that you disassemble the Xbox using these guides. Try to isolate the part that seems to be rattling inside the case. From your brief description, it sounds like you will need a new optical drive as well as possibly a hard drive. Remember that for the optical drive, "the Xbox 360 is designed so that the DVD drive only works with the particular game console it was originally installed in. Replacing a defective optical drive with a replacement optical drive does not work." So, you will have to either buy an identical drive as the one that is currently installed and replace the PCB with the one from your drive, or you will have to flash the new drive. Not sure what your comfort level is with that. For the hard drive follow these instructions http://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-360/a...

Hard drive and/or DVD drive damage, Replace the hard drive and DVD drive chassis assembly and test again

Or just send it back to Microsoft for repair
