Red Ring of Death.

Well, sadly my 360 ha the Rrod.

I'm just asking, if there's any-one here who's encountered this problem how long did it take Microsoft to get the console back to you?

I sent mine out on Tuesday.

re: Red Ring of Death.

I didn't have the RROD, but my 360 took almost two months to come back from repair but I know people who got theirs back within 2-3 weeks so it's just the luck of the draw I'm afraid.

dude u can actually see the progress of it as long as u wrote down the ups routing number they gave to you in the box.

re: Red Ring of Death.

A couple of months or so, I forget.

My xbox is being a bitch. I try playing Guitar Hero 3 and I am lucky to get through two or three songs before it crashes and does the Red Ring of Death. If I turn it off and leave it for a while it becomes all chirpy again later on, but it's a serious embuggerance.

Any suggestions?

Send it in. It WILL die completely soon enough. Mine did the same thing.

re: Red Ring of Death.

It's the second time the RRoD has hit it. The last time was the day before sodding Christmas. I got it back about halfway through Janurary. This is surely an issue to raise?

The MODs might aswell make a sub-forum for the RRoD...
Seriously, there's so many threads which concern the RRoD.

re: Red Ring of Death.

2 rings mean that a wire is disconnected, try unplugging everything and then plugging it all back in.

The towel trick doesnt cool it down.

It actually overheats it in hope that the fuses will melt back together for it to work again.

Not advised to do it though.

then excpet it to come back buy this next weekend.
the gay thing is the ups man requires a signature cuz this is such an expensive product microsoft requires that people sign for the xbox. ANyways, if noone signs for it they try to come back for 3 consecutive days in a row, like if it was supposed to come in today on march 9th, and u werent there, they will keep on trying untill the 11th cuz its 3 days. If u dont get it buy the 3rd day, they send it back to the service center which is pretty gay.
wat u should do is visit ur local ups store frequently and check to see if its there and sign for it manually.
of course, you can call microsoft and ask them for the ups/serial number/ status of ur xbox.
This is because when u requested a service from ms, u gave them an email to register the xbox. THis email contains a service number unique to ur xbox, and so is as good as any serial number.
