About 5-7 weeks ago (I can't remember exactly when) I got my Xbox 360 back from sending it in for the RRoD (for the second time *cough*bullshit*cough*). From then to now I've been having some trouble with the Power Supply Box. The light on it will just turn red for no reason. When I unplug the cable connected to the electrical outlet then plug it back in, the light will just stay orange for 2 seconds and then turn red and stay like that. I recently got lucky with it for about a week and a half where it decided to work, but now it's reverted back to having that same problem. I would actually feel a little bit better if I hadn't just sent the damn console into Microsoft weeks ago, but the fact that they "fixed" it and now it doesn't work just enrages me to the point I want to kill someone with the power box. The USB ports on the front and back of the 360 have also been unresponsive, but that may just be a problem with my charging cords...

Anyway the question I've came here to ask is if anyone else has had this problem and if so did you find a fix for it?
(I sent an e-mail to Microsoft Support but they just sent me the Troubleshooting guide off their website [and exact copy by the way] after I stated that I had already read it, and said they don't fix the Power Supply Boxes...which means I'll have to buy a brand new one of those expensive monstrous medieval flail bastards!)

Thats real bad luck there.

My cousin had the same problem, and it couldn't be fixed. I gave him my old Power Supply Box from my RRoD 360 and now it works like a charm.

So yeah...you'll have to buy a new one by the sounds of it...
