Xbox 360 game says put the disc in an Xbox 360 when it already is

Old game, playing on a 360, and it keeps saying to play this disc put it in an Xbox 360 console. Disc looks clean. Other games load fine. Is the drive dying or is it the disc?

Odd one. That exact message is what an Xbox One or Series shows for a 360 game that isn't on the backward compatible list, so make sure it's actually going in the 360. If it is the 360, the drive isn't reading the disc properly and is falling back to a generic error. Clean the disc, try another game to see if it's the disc or the drive, and clear the system cache: Settings > System > Storage, highlight the hard drive, press Y, Clear System Cache. If no discs work at all it's the drive's laser.
