No chance at all.

Microsoft only gives no-hdmi xboxes when you give them a no-hdmi xbpx

That's not true actually.. just not a very high chance you will get one with HDMI.

If they were going to charge you for the repair, better just to buy a new arcade.

Exactly. You will get back the same type of system you sent in.

I'm sorry, but are you guys stupid? Or do you even know what you're talking about?

They don't replace the insides. They put your machine in line to be repaired and send out a pre-repaired machine.

I sent in a pre-HDMI xbox that I bought September 22, '07. When I got it back, it had HDMI.

If it got rrod, they won't fix it and you will get a new one (all of my friends have gone through that) and it's probable that you get one with HDMI 'cause all new consoles have it.

Thanks for the info guys.

Yeah ive heard that too, they simply take in yours, and give you another one that has been repaired. So im guessing, i have a VERY slim chance of getting one. Can anyone else confirm this?

Lol yeah, you bet, we paid more for the console, have to deal with more hardware failures as well as less features, youd guess we might demand just a little bit more for being the loyal customers:P

I Very much doubt it,unless they cant find the spare bits to repair yours.
