| polezo said: Has anyone else ever had a fake TRL? Since owning the console i've mostly only had to deal the occasional game ruining freeze-up, but on two occaisions the thing wouldn't start up at all and promptly got TRL. After drinking a beer and venting for a bit while planning to call msoft, i tried it again and it worked each time. |
Last week we had a REALLY violent thunderstorm approaching our area and I didn't know it was coming. I was happily playing my 360, which I have plugged directly into the wall (as recommended by MS) and the power flickered just for a second. My 360 turned off and then immediately back on and flashed the red lights.
I turned it off and back on and it was fine and has been fine ever since. I read online that power flickers like that will sometimes give you a "false" hardware failure, so I'm not worried about it. But for a minute there I was absolutely horrified. The new Tiger Woods comes out soon and I would hate to be without my 360 that day. Thank god for the internet. There were plenty of people on plenty of forums with my same story and none of them had any further problems after a simple restart.
