StabWound Illegitimate Son of God ultra seeker total posts: 1293 since: May 2007	Sep 26, 07 at 9:07am HALP!
	OK so i got Halo 3 and i go to play it (first game i have played in several months)and a start the campaign and all is good and well but after about 15 minutes the 360 just restarted itself So i figured that it was just some odd thing that happened and restarted playing then it happened again... At this point I'm getting really annoyed because i can't get through the damn first 15 min of the game without it restarting and i don't even get time to save... i tried it over and over and it always keeps restating itself. I felt the back of the 360 and it was noticeably hot. It is standing vertical and has about a foot of room on each side. I haven't gotten the RROD yet but a few times when i started the 360 no lights come on but the system starts up then shuts it self down 30 seconds later. I do have a Gamestop warranty that is still in effect but i would hate to lose all my save data while getting a replacement. what i want to know is wtf is going on? is there something that i should try? as i said no rrod yet so i'm not quite sure what is going on. Any help would be appreciated and thanks to the few who actually read this. -------------------

	Just wondering if possibly this might have anything to do with it, but which Halo 3 did you get? The regular or special tin edition? Or legendary?

They'll only need the console. No Hard Drive, Remote, AV Cables anything. Just the console. ------------------- Visit Home

I just got the regular version. And Gamestop wants my entire system and they will give me a brand new one off the shelf, I was thinking of getting a memory card and transferring my save data but I'm not even sure if that is possible. I was talking to a guy at circuit city and he said unless it is getting rrod it's not an overheating issue and he hasn't seen a broken one without the rrod and that it could possibly be a power supply issue. It is plugged into a power strip, but even when i put it in the wall it still happens. -------------------

	I'd say take the new console from GameStop and just play Halo 3 all over, instead of putting out money for a memory card.

	Riiight Well I played it for like 3 hours today and it only happened once rather than every 15 minutes, so i guess its getting better. If it gets bad again I'll send it to Microsoft because I'd rather not lose a years worth of savedata. -------------------

I didn't stick up for him. That's his business what he believes in. If it's a joke or not, I don't care. He came in here with a regular comment and wasn't looking for any problems. Then comes you. Instead of saying something more productive, you lashed out at him. Wishing him bad is pretty immature. That's being ignorant. It's almost like you're following the guy just to single him out. Oh, and "Any man who praises the terrorists who bombed our country doesn't deserve an Xbox 360" sounds sooo patriotic. You're %100 American Beef alright. ------------------- Bacon!?!
