Answer 1

Sounds like your drive is bad. Which means you can either send it to microsoft for free if youve had it for less then a year, or a 100 bucks and theyll fix it. Or you can go on youtube and they have some videos on how to replace the drive. THen you just have to buy a new drive.

Answer 2

sounds like your drive is about to die.  There are a few ways to try to rectify this.  You can open your 360 and open the drive and adjust the POT of the laser.  What helps me is I went out and bought a can of compressed air at raidoshack for like 3 bucks.  And I shoot some compressed air into the drive knocking any dust and whatnot from the drive out.  That actually helps a great deal.  I have had my 360 since launch day and never had to go out to buy a new 360.  Good luck
