it sounds like you have one of the many bad xbox 360's
it sounds to me like the drive it self it not working properly (well duh), i would of suggested away from the xbox but now i would suggest getting hold of microsoft if it keeps happening

The 360s are great, and the problem you have is NOT common, the common failures are usually not the DVD drives, and the suggestion of staying away from the 360 is just a fan boyish suggestion. Anyhow, I would suggest returning/swapping it out. Make sure the SKU you get on the rpl 360 is for the newer prod line kind, because they have a much lower failure rate (they never did recall the old 360's, which is one thing I am unhappy about, they should of).

well ok i realy didn't mean anythin fanboish wise when i posted so i'm sorry if it sounded that way
the second thing i would like to say is that i have owned 4 xbox 360's and 2 of them have had problems like this hence me suggesting the topic creater get hold of microsoft
and it sounded like that because i sold my fourth 360 a few hours before i posted and was kind of angry i only got 1/3 of the money i paid for it back, i kicked my self after that

Hold the white connect button on the Xbox 360, and then press the eject button once, see how many lights flash, then whilst still holding the white button press the eject button once more, repeat 4 times.
4 flashing red lights means 0
3 means 3
2 means 2
1 means 1
Then find a website with error number codes and what they mean.
