XBOX 360 rings of death

Mine just RODed

Anything other than the overheating trick?

 

A sledgehammer....




I had one do it, finally got a refurbed with a warranty from gamestop... Then that pos died, but gave me a new one in box.

 

microsoft has a 3 year warranty.

 

its...hacked

 

"you cant hack an xbox" says my friend

 

Yeah, you can. MY dvd drive has been flashed so i can play burned games.

 

Your problem is exactly why I didn't want my friend to hack mine. He's quite knowledgeable about that sort of thing and has hacked many successfully, but I have a bad track record with voiding warranties.

 

EHHH atleast i got good time played 20 or so hacked games.

 

theres a few places around atlanta that will fix RROD's. Check craigslist

 

there is a difference between hacking and modding.

 

Sorry, a HACKED firmware has been flashed on to my drive

 

I have even heard people sending back hacked firware 360's and Microsoft still fixing them. I would recommend just flashing your stock firmware back on before you send it back.

 

Mine had the sticker removed and Microsoft still honored the warranty. I think they have so many problems they just fix them, no questions asked, now.

 

i had a first gen from the night of the release and the sticker was like that too and they still fixed it. but it may have just been cuz all the first gens were crap.. im now on my 4th.... all fixed for free though

 

What I did was tell them my teenage son opened the case trying to repair it but didn't touch anything once he got inside.

I don't know if it made a difference though.

 

Same thing happened with me - got a brand new one a week later with no questions asked

 

mine just crapped on me and they won't fix it for free. the bastards

 

Found a guy that will do it for 50 bucks..
