this my second xbox, first one broke way back played call of duty alot and took bout 8 months to break, replacement took bout 7 months, should i get a ps3 or another xbox, by the way i had premium not elite, should i go wit da elite?
Go to best buy, buy a pro, buy the 2yr replacement plan $60, if the xbox dies again you go in the same day it happened and get a new one. You can keep you harddrive, not wait 7 months to get it back.

that's what i did. Had to replace it last month, not a single problem when bringing it back and getting the new one. the warranty is totally worth the fifty bucks or whatever it was
See my sig "360 Pro:11/12/06-7/9/07. 360 Elite:7/10/07-???" i work at best buy i have seen 1000s of 360 returned, i myself had this happen. Those who get it are happy when it happens those that don't , get pissed

That sucks. Sorry to hear that. Personally Ive had my xbox since launch finally broke down on me a few months ago. Dealt with a lot of idiotic stuff from microsoft and than decided to give up and fix it myself. Which turned out to be VERY easy. Personally I think thats the best solution instead of getting a new one, but if its under warranty just send it to micosoft.

It depends on the store, my store first started to let the customer keep the old hard drive only if it was the same unit pro of a pro, not pro for an elite, then they were told to take the hardrives, now we are back to letting the customer keep the drives your local best buy might different. They might be nice or be pains in the butt
i just had the red ring of death a few days ago for no reason. i keep my 360 very steady and don't move it around too often.
so i know i couldn't have broken it. i've found a way around this problem by holding my 360 in my hands without the disc inside or wires connected and shoke it very hard up and down. i did that a few times and the rrod seems to happen because of loose part or bad soldering(what i've read from researching around the web). so why won't you try shaking your 360 really hard but don't let go of it =). I don't know if this will fix the problem but it allows you to play again.
my results(i only shook it about three times) so far is random freezes or rrod. if so i shake it again. otherwise the rrod disappeared and works ok so far.
I've had a launch console since day 1 and haven't had a single problem. Every time I read a post like this though, I'm just waiting for something to happen.
Actually Microsoft extended all 360 warranties regarding the RROD to three years, so buying a Best Buy warranty would be a big waste of money. Just send it in to Microsoft.

I liked the idea of getting it back the same day, thats why I got the bestbuy warranty. I just hope they won't give me a hard time about the hard drive. If they do I will probably ask to speak the the manager and I'll leave the hard drive at home.
