Xbox Motherboard difficulties(Mine fried). Replace it or say my farwells?

by Baller1257 on August 9, 2006 Comments

I am going to make this short, sweet, and to the point. I own an Xbox and it has been good to me. I had a issue with it last summer where mysteriously its motherboard fried and now it has been deemed irreparable by a few stores that do console hardware repair. What should I do? I don't want to trash it but I am not a modder and have thought about salvaging any parts I can and selling them on Ebay. Any suggestions???Should I try to replace the motherboard???

P.S. I don't want to shell out another $100-$150 dollars to buy a another Xbox. I don't know if I can go through another supposed loss like this............. lol.


Forgot to mention that the warrenty is no longer. I think that conclusion was already made however. Well this is a comfirmation then. lol.
