Oh My God......

I just got home from a 4 day trip from Las Vegas..My 360 has been turned ON the whole time. I've turned it off. I'll start playing GTA in 2 hours. How long before I get RROD'ed???????????

you should turn on the option that turns ur system off after 6 hours or w/e.

and on topic, leaving it on for 4 days doesnt mean u will get RRoD. doesnt mean it wont either......:twisted:

^ thats true, but I play alot and I'm a smoker... plus this machine is re-built.

I think I really screwed the pooch

but it was in sleep mode at Live Markt place.... I'll bet 3mnths.

Some encouraging words:

Consider that four days isn't all that long compared to marathon gaming sessions over the course of several weeks. Also, RROD occurs because the processor overheats. If your box is just sitting there at the dashboard, it's not working very hard, and thus probably not getting very hot.

Even if you type 'thanks' it's considered spam. Isn't that kinda dumb?

No, if you do it on sticky threads, then you could get moderated. Happened to me once. only for a day tho.

that is hella lame :(

well thank god you came here first!

Don't ya know that Gamespot has some of the best psychics?

Is your 360 in God Mode?

If so, no worries.

Are you sure somebody else didn't turn it on while you were away?

The 360 goes into low power mode (the screen gets dark) after a few minutes of idleness. If you do get the RROD, I hope you have a warranty, but you should be fine. I've left mine on for a whole day and it was fine. Just be careful next time.

that's not good. You should always set the option for the auto turn off feature after 6 hours. Who knows, but maybe someone broke in and started playin your games?

I'd give it a few days rest either way.

Why would leaving it on make it get the RROD?

you would be more likely to get it if you played it non stop for 4 days, but leaving it idle wouldn't have the same effect as the temps would be cooler than when playing it.

Over two years later and still going strong. HAHA!!!

My friend has had his xbox for 3 years and ever since a year ago he doesnt turn his 360 off he just turns his tv off and it hasnt had a single problem...lets hope your as lucky as him :P
