Ever get your Xbox Repaired?

[tripolar]

How many have you 360 owners had to get your xbox repaired? for problems ie; red rings, video failure, E74 message.

Two weeks before I warranty expired my xbox had video failure, and i had to send it away and they gave me a new one. Its a pain but i would still have bought a 360.

[Cloud]

mine got red rings so i sent it off and it was gone for like a week and i got a month free live

[Perseus]

Last year, I was stupid and had my 360 on my carpet, so it started overheating and then Rock Band screwed it up and that was officially why I Sent it off. It took like three-weeks and i got a stupid one-month free card for LIVE that I don't need because mine is recurring every year, but oh well.

[ManyPearTree]

Lol I'll be happy to take those one monther off your hands. :)

anyways I have had no problems with mine..

[Underground_Network]

Mine died like two months ago.

And I still haven't fixed.

Because my mom can't find the warranty or something.

I don't care though lol.

I've actually managed to survive without my 360.

I never had to yet but I only had it since February.

If you've had it so long, are you talking bout an Xbox or a 360?

This thread is relating to 360s...

Mine hasn't been sent off.

Ive had this 360 since they first came out

my original Xbox broke I sent that away once and they sent me a new power cord cause again i got that when it first came out and apparently mine as an early model had power issues that would cause fires so they issued us all new power cords

Almost one year from today i had my first xbox "failure". Just weeks after my warranty expired i started hearing a grinding noise coming from the cd-rom or whatever. It wasnt scratching the disks or anything so i let it go. App. 3 days later i started not being able to start my games. I call it the 'unreadable disk error' but i dont know what its usually called. Sent it in and got about 1 week later.

I think everything is designed to crap out after the warranty expires. But it will occasionally happen before.

[tripolar]

Yeah that 1 month card they give you is a joke, atleast let you select a platinum hit for free, or some ms points. I got the replacement in march and they gave me a 1 month card for my "inconvenience" but i don't need to renew until January.

And about crapping out after the warranty goes, my replacement expired in June and now it freezes up occasionally.

[Neverender]

Lets see.

I had an Xbox. it broke. I sent it off. 1 year later its still not back


So i switched to Playstation.

Depends if they shipped it using UPS.

I think it is sad when everyone expects their XBOX to die at some point...microsoft needs to do a better job :P

[Perseus]

It is imminent for a 360 to die. My friend has gone through three already, lol.

They did, new consoles do not get red rings INSTEAD its an E74 error message lol.

[Perseus]

They did, new consoles do not get red rings INSTEAD its an E74 error message instead lol.

Well, at least you don't have to see flashing red lights, lol.

2005 wasn't years and years and years ago.

Even for me.

[JunkBondTrader]

Yep, got the red rings. Took about two weeks. The hardest part was getting the right kind of box. :P

Its years and years if you still have the original xbox360 you bought, never had any problems and not a replacement

[The Boy Genius]

statistically speaking it probably did something like 70% of all consoles failed Damn Microsoft
