alright i just tried to turn on my console and the top left, bottom left, and bottom right lights are lit on my console(top left is not lit) is this the RROD?

this same thing happened to me 3 times yesterday with it lit in the same location and i was able to fix it by unplugging the cables and power outlet and hdd. now after half an hour of trying this, it wont turn back on.

any help would be appreciated

I highly doubt it matters the position, but I could be wrong. But I'm pretty sure that as long as three are lit up red ... I'm sorry for your loss.

directly from the The Broken 360 Discussion and Information

Sections 1, 3 and 4 are flashing red
- General Hardware Failure

Solution
Try restarting the console, if it does work next restart, then all is well. Although your console may RROD again later on, and require a repair. Otherwise, disconnect everything connecting to the 360, plug everything back in, and try restarting the 360 again. If that doesn't work, ensure that the power supply is showing a green light when the 360 turns on. If all else fails, and you do not wish to try a temporary solution, then you will have to send your 360 in for repair.

i got it to work but this must mean it will soon die for sure? hmm...

There should be a manufacturing date above the barcode on the back of the console. And even if it's working now, you need to send it in. It's already a struggle getting it to work and it's only going to get worse if you don't do something about it.

It's RROD. It's just taking a while to die.

Look on the back of the Xbox. There is a sticker that says Manufacture Date.
