Ill start out with a sorry, I dont go on these forums, so i don't know if threads like this are around every day. So I was watching a DVD when my 360's fans started to pick up and i got two red lights and it shut off. I knew this meant overheat, which i thought was weird cause it had only been on for a couple of hours, and it's in my cool basement and in an open space. But I didnt care and went on my computer for a while and then went to bed. The next morning I thought I'd play some CoD4, I turn the Xbox on, and 2 seconds later, I get red lights. So... what should I do?

Should I call Microsoft services?
If so, are repairs free? Or do I need to pay for my bad luck of getting faulty hardware?

If you are still under warranty, then it should be free, usually 2-4 weeks I think.

Like, store bought warranty? Cause I dont have that. Or does it have a warranty from Microsoft? I got it on Dec. 27 last year, would I still have it?
