just a tip...its what i do since my play and charge kit stopped working. plug the usb lead into a computer and charge your controlles off of that. my batteries would not charge at all but i tried it and it worked. i always charge my batteries this way now. not saying it will work for you but its worth a try. you may need drivers, http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/download/DownloadResult.aspx?category=Gaming&type=Controller&name=pk_xbox_cont&os=XP_SP1&lang=en they are for XP, vista has them built I think

i dont play Endwar, but if you are talking about online ranking data for games you've played against others, you can't. If its just game data, i.e. saves, then do what dubbleup said^^

Yeah you'd think the game would be unplayable if it was damaged. My 360 is set to all the correct settings. So its really strange how these white lines just popped up one day. My cousin (Not the one I borrowed Left 4 Dead from) has both Oblivion and The Godfather and his graphics don't look like it does on mine. Its just strange and like I said its driving me crazy. Ha ha. I've never seen anything like it. I just want those 2 games back without the graphic problems cause those are my 2 favorite 360 games. But yeah. Thanks for the info. Maybe I'll figure it out soon. Peace.Valhallen20
So have you tried his 2copies of those games on yours? If so and they work then there is a simple solution. If not then try them and see if it still happens. If it does still happen then you've ruled out the disks being damaged Have you tried installing the games to the HDD? Could make a difference especially with Oblivion

Rent a copy of The Godfather or Oblivion, or whatever other games are doing it and see ifthere isany difference. Although I highly doubt it as if the disk the game is on is damaged then surely it would not play at all, or if it did it would freeze completley at the parts where the disk is damaged. Go back to HDMI and set the resolution to the native resolution of the TV, most likely 720p but depends what TV you got. Try clearing the consoles cache by following the method on this webpage :- http://www.wikihow.com/Delete-the-Cache-on-Your-Xbox-360 This will unfortunately delete any game updates you have but they will automatically reinstall next time you start the game as you are now connected to live. Buy a DVD lense disk cleaner. They are cheap and work great. They have micro fibre bristles that actually clean the lense really well. Cant think of anything else right now other than it being a faulty graphics chip in the console but as it only happens on a few games it probably isn't that. Good luck

Basically theyhave pgraded the motherboard and as it is a newer model and requires less wattage, it requiresa dfferent PSU (power brick). Call microsoft and explain this to them and they should sendyou a different PSU. As for the game saves, they would be the same regardless as you dont send the memory unit or HDD inwhen you have your 360 repaired

Nope.

Took 12 weeks to ship from UK to USA, they didn't even attempt a repair, just gave him a new motherboard, back to UK.

Sorry but it doesn't take 12 weeks to ship and xbox.

BS....MS...

Why ship a UK Xbox to the USA. They have repair centers in the UK

If its less that 3 yrs old it will be free. you can never be sure it wont return though but these days they tend to be sending out reconditioned replacement consoles rather that repairing the one you send in so you usually get one back with better parts in it

[QUOTE="Liberator72"][QUOTE="Hotwire246"] Dude, just send it off. It only takes like 2 weeks... Spend the 200 on games or something.-SPECTER-MIKE
This^^^^ wasting $200 when you could buy several games is just plain silly. 2 weeks without a console is not much to wait. And E74 errors are now covered by the 3 yr warranty so you will be covered

Ok, I might send it off, but lets try to focus on the original question.

The Arcade does have HDMI and if you do decide to get one,look for one witht the 150w power brick (newest model). The HDD will plug straight onto it but oyu will have to transfer all you licenses for any downloaded content you may have or you will have to be signed into live to use any of it. As for where to get it, well thats up to you really. It's gonna be the same price wherever you go if you get it new
