360 gamertag transfer question

Hi, I have a few questions that need answering, so any help you all can give would be great. First off, my 360 got the "red lights of death" and I couldn't fix it on my own. my microsoft warranty has expired, but I purchased a 2-year replacement policy from Best Buy where I got it so I took it in today. They said there's no problem with replacing it, but I cant keep my own HDD with all my information on it; I'd have to get a new empty one. Now, Im perfectly OK with losing my saved game files, but what I want to know is this: If I get a new 360 + HDD will I be able to keep these three things: My Gamertag, Gamerscore, and will I be able to redownload my arcade games for free to a new system? I understand that there's no way to recover the saved game files, but i'd hate to have to re-pay for my 10 or so arcade games. can anyone give me an answer as to how getting your gamer info to a new system works?

thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, just use account recovery from the 360 live menu and enter the required info.....you'll be able to get all your downloads and your score will remain intact....

go to xbox live and i think it will give you a selection whether to make a new profil or recover you old gamertag i think that answers you question/s?kalboism
