Post whether you have your system vertical or horizontal, how many times your Xboxs have broken down and when you got it.

Copy and paste this:

Horizontal.

0 Times.

I just feel like the disc is super loose in the tray when it is vertical.

Mine was vertical...and I had two systems break.

When my 3rd one started acting up, I switched to horizontal and the freezing stopped...but it could have been coincidence.

Got my first one on November 22nd 2005

Been using it horizontal and never broke though it has froze  a few times since about a couple months after the console was released.  I flipped it to vertical once while a game was in it and it nearly destroyed the game.

I read somewhere that if you stand it up verticaly it reduces risk scratches on game disks.
