I'm guessing you either bought it used or out of warranty??

This past Christmas?? If yes then console is still under warranty & you wouldn't have to buy another one. I've had no problems with the newer upgraded Xbox 360s, however tons of issues with the older models.

Oh now I see, I try to be kind & helpful however your just trolling. How low you must be to want to go into another console's forum that you don't own & start a thread to attempt at making it look bad. I see it on here all the time & I can't believe there are so many foolish people out there.

This forum is full of children. Perhaps that's why.

I changed it so that you or someone like you couldn't try & make up good reasons for trolling to be ok.

hell I'll give you a po adress and mail me the 360. I'll deal with that warranty stuff. Unless... you know your trolling. Why you would troll about this I dont know its not like 360's dont die all the time. "eww my first 360 died wahh.." call me when youve turn your sixth in for repair. None the less mail it to me I'll take it get it fixed and sell it for a PS3! I dont have one of those yet and need a good blu-ray player.

Then why did you just say that your two only options were to either get a ps3, or to buy a new xbox?

I have had my xbox360 since 2006 and it has never given me the red ring of death. Sure, the disc draw jams often and I have to spend about 10 minutes trying to open it to get a disc in or out, however I put that down to age. When it finally dies, I will definitely buy another xbox360.

OK maybe I can answer this. First of all did you get that cooling fan for your system? If you did then there is the problem & here's why. I had the same issue as you did and so I figureed if I removem it, then maybe it will work!!! Well guess what? it did!!!!!!!!!!! Also try to stand it up instead of flat and if this works please let me know. have a great weekend. :)
