LOL RROD because of lightning 2 minutes after plugging in new 360.

So a couple of weeks ago my good old pal the 360 kind of decided to start scratching my DVDs just like a DJ. That's when I tought, "Hey I think it's time to get a new one!" So today I bought an arcade 360. I went home eager to plug it in for a long-waited Halogame. I went trough the menus for installing and all that when: (In october that is, I don't think this has ever occured in Sweden at this time of year) Lightning "shikabowkawazwoosh" and ........RROD :D Yippie! I tried restarting it twice but got the infamous red lights in my face. I then go to scream all of the curse words ther is. Then I went back and restarted it and: It WORKED! Ii healed itself! It's a miracle, for all people out there with dead 360's, there is always hope. Believe.(not in God that is)(no offence people who actually believe in gods and stuff)

Also sorry if my english sucks but I'm Swedish.

Good for you dude! :-)

did you get it from the highstreet?

if so, just as a caution, return it and get a new one. If its already displayed RROD, it might very well do it again.

When i first got mine, it wouldnt turn on, then after a few hours it did, i returned it any way and said it was faulty and got a new one without any problems.
