I have had this problem ever since I got Halo 3. It was the first 360 game I had put into my xbox, and seems to have cause some problems. Before, all I usually played was Halo 2 on Xbox Live, and I had (and have) no problems. To this day, any original xbox game I put in works just fine. But no matter what Xbox 360 game I put in (brand new or old), 80% of the time it will say it is a DVD after starting up, and if I just put it in while its on, it will give me a white screen and tell me to put the disc into an Xbox 360 console to play it. I have dealt with this for a while now, as my warranty is apparently up, and I have just been waiting for it to RROD so I can send it in. The Xbox 360, when I finally get the game working (which takes me 20 to 30 times of turning the xbox on and off until it no longer says a DVD is in the tray) will make these sounds almost like its grinding my CD, and will make a sound periodically like this..

Does anyone know what the problem is or how to fix it maybe without voiding my RROD warranty?
