LOL. You may not have gotten RRoD now, but you are asking for it by setting something else on top of it.

 

Funny how that's not the case with any electronic devices I've ever owned in my entire life.  It's as is, *gasp* the 360 that you love so dearly is a poorly built machine.  Oh noes, it'd be horrible for you to admit that the hardware is absolute trash and that any other company in the world would have been sued of business, huh?

 

Anyway, good luck with the reset, since the warrenty is out after a year for that problem.  Of course, if it doesn't work you could wrap it up in a towel and let it run until it gets RRoD - then they won't have any choice but to fix it for you.

When have I said the 360 does not have hardware problems?

Make sure your cables are hooked up correctly, if you move them and they come unplugged the 3 lights may come on.

So I decided to perform the CPR procedure that madskillz posted and look what happened:

Does it mean it's gonna get repaired for free now?

Yeah. Those methods were off http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=484726

However, you do have some heating issues going on. Nonetheless, you'll get a better unit back for just your time.

Glad I could help!

That is a red ring of death sandwich you got there.  Nice and warm.  I am assuming you have posted the pic above on here before, didn't someone warn you then.

And yet if it were any other console in there, it wouldn't be an issue.  Stop acting like it's his fault MS makes ****ty hardware.



You do not have the right to never be offended.

lol. Now go buy another one!! hurry! that should add up to the 360 lead! go go go, besides $700 more or less with tax on 2 Xbox 360s and enjoy both of them for about 5 years is better than 1 PS3 for $400 or $500 that could very likely working flawlessly for over 10 years right? Damn that PS3 doesn't look that expensive now does it?

Maybe next time you could refrain from posting what is completely unecessary. :)

One thing that bugs me about PS3 is that you cannot stack it like you can with XBox. With XBox you can stack anything you want on, like put it on griddle, with waffle iron on top, or even like you have there, which is kinda the same.

PS3 you can only keep warm with sweaters mostly.

Once again, please inform me of when I said the 360 did not have hardware problems?  Since it does, there are precautions one needs to take.  That is what I was saying.

Merely stating that the RRoD could have possibly been avoided if he had done the thing that was quite obvious to do in order to try and prevent it.

Selnor, don't respond - just hit the report button repeatedly to banish trolls. Works pretty good!

I find in Fable 2 a steel axe, mixed with level 5 inferno dispatches trolls pretty good to. ;)
