I would hope you had tried at least twice before wasting your time taking it back to the store and making a fool of yourself. Being a brand new machine things like that happen upon first use.

I'm not sure which would be better as far as overheating goes, but I strongly suggest that you lay it horizontally (second picture). Standing it vertically creates a big chance that it'll scratch your discs. If it's ever tilted at all while a disc is spinning, even for a split-second, it'll leave those nasty circle scratches that will most likely corrupt some of the files.

Hmm, let's say I have a overheating problem. Obviously, I'll have to pay the $99 for repair. Now after this process, am I re-covered for the E74/RROD issues for another 3 years, just in case the problem comes up after the initial hardware repair?

Do you have to send your 360 away within a certain ammount of days after its RROD'd ?

@ smarti3: I think as long as the system is still within the warrenty period, it should be fine.

quote MusiKonI would guess that you aren't covered for another 3 years, though I'm not certain. I know that once I used my warranty, I was not given another 3 years. However, since you are paying for your problem, it may be a different case, but my best guess is still leaning towards no. It's not the repair that is given a warranty, it's the 360, so it should only last 3 years from the original purchase date. -------------------

quote nani17If it happened before it most likely can happen again. Depends on what happened exactly to make it RROD - if you can tell us what you think made it go haywire then we can give you suggestions on how to prevent it happening again. ------------------- | |

quote Lyrikal_Retorik1. repeatedly opening it(looking to mod) 2. It sits in between my pc an monitor on a desk in the corner which gets very hot.(must likely this one)  Left or right because i feel the best solution is cutting a whole in the xbox case that will let some heat out | |

OK this may seem like a stupid question but anyway:
OK I'm sending back my Xbox (RROD of course) and I was wondering if UPS will still pick it up and send it away if it is in a Royal Mail shipping box. ------------------- Rafa Benitez Is King! Long Live The King!
