XBOX Problem - Please help...?

My daughters were playing DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) on the XBox and one of them pressed so many options on the dance mat that it froze the game. Then one of them just turned off the XBOX. Now we get a red ring of light around the big button and the screen is black with the message call customer support. Yikes! Is there something we could try? The disk is still inside and we can't get it out. Help please.. (>.<)"

    Get a paper clip and jam it in the hole close to the eject button. Try to get it out. Before you do that, turn on your system and wait until that black screen comes up. Look at the top left corner and remember that number.

    Check out this link for the explanation of the number. Probabaly you got a 12.

    confident, it look the the Xbox does get enormously warm and it may warmth up an entire room even though, it is not reliable for a the container to get too warm as basically like a workstation, you're able to be able to desire to maintain it cool. Open a window or greater proper yet, positioned a small fan aimed in direction of the container to maintain it cool, so it would not over warmth

    unplugging it for 6 or 8 hours cant remember which one it is but by doing so it will reset the console allowing you to reset the settings on the system, at the same time it should allow you to open the drive at that point
