I can fix your 360. I just have to touch it with my finger tips sensually. Thats how i fixed my friend Aaron's Xbox. My whole life i've never had any piece of electronics fail. My 4 year old 360 is as limber as a gymnast. My original brick Playstation is still working great, as well as my N64, Ps2 slim, Gamecube, Gamegear. Thats right, i have a working Gamegear.Maj.JakeVitaminwater said:It just red ringed last night. I'm not to broken up about it because it was a used one that I bought from Gamestop, but now I can't play my Xbox games.
Also I was trying to remember if it was just cheaper or easier to buy a new one or get the old one repaired, so if someone could tell me that would be nice.
One more thing, if anyone wants to buy me a new Xbox 360 just message me.
I'm an electronics demi-god. call me.
Bummer, broski. I'm in the same boat. A used one I got from Gamestop died after a year from red ring. So I went to The Shack, got some thermal paste, ran back, cut my fingers franticallty removing casing and removal componants from a bare motherboard only to discover that the parts had ben jostled and loostened by a recent move. I had the urge to shove a rake up Microsoft's rear end for creating hardware with the durability of a newborn infant.
The same thing happened to me when I first bought a used xbox. If you had an extented warranty then you could get a refund and then by a new xbox arcade for a little extra money. Or as long as you haven't opened up your xbox you can send it to microsoft for a free repair. It really won't take that long and they'll also send you a free month of live.
I got my first console the day it came out, and it lasted me until May 21st last year. It was a sad day, but I ended up just buying the console that came with MW2 (250 gig hard drive ftw)
You're better off just buying a cheap one, that way you aren't blowing so much money.

Nice. My xBox died a little while ago (won't recognize the HDD) and I tried to fix it myself. I ended up taking it apart, poking it a few times with a screwdriver, then putting it back together. It didn't work.Radeonx said:
OT: I don't think i'm going to get a new one right now. I called support, and I think they said they can send me an Xbox without a HDD for $100. I'm guessing it's re-furbished, and I can't really spare the $100 right now. Plus, the only games I really want to play are Forza 3 and Fallout GOtY.
