POL won't start on xbox 360Follow

Hi, I hope someone can help. Earlier during Campaign ffxi froze for the first time on my 360. I waited for a while and had to do a manual shutdown. Hours later I try to play and it won't even start POL.

My console knows I have the ffxi disc in there since it says so under "My xbox," but when I hit "Play PlayOnline Viewer" it trys to load for about 30 seconds and then says, "Unrecognized Disc- the disc is unreadable. Clean the disc with a soft cloth. Restart the console." I know I don't have a dirty/ scratched disc for several reasons: I haven't moved the console or taken the disc out of my 360 for months, and when I examined the disc it was spotless (I'm OCD about my tech items).

I would try to uninstall FFXI and POL except that I can't log onto POL to do so. As far as I was able to gather, there is no other way to uninstall it from the harddrive without being logged onto POL.

Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know what I can do to fix this it? Help is greately appreciated. I hope to be on in time for tomorrow's Dynamis :3

Thanks in advance,

In order to solve this problem format your hd. It sucks and you'll have to redownload the updates but meh only way to fix it. I found out the hard way as well :/

Yeah there is you just goto settings then memory and press y then select format. Pretty much all there is to it.
