So my 360 went kaput...
« on: September 19, 2006, 08:11:18 PM »
Went to boot up the other day, and it loaded for about 10 seconds, then completely froze up and made white noise.  Every time after it would load for literally about a second and then freeze.  Then finally today I tried it, and the green indicator light on the front turned into a solid red which is a simple diagnostic telling you your shit's fucked.

However, I still had my receipt and Wal-Mart exchanged that bitch no questions asked.  The shitty part is that I lost all of my saved games / music / pics that I had saved on my hard drive.  But I guess I did get a new controller, and an extra ethernet cord. 

So the moral is, if you're gonna buy a system - buy that bitch from Wal-Mart.  I didn't purchase any warranty and they took it right back.  Best Buy was charging something like $50.

Yeah no doubt.  I'm not really trippin.  I know the initial shipments of the 360 had some bugs, so I figure this new one should be good to go.

Mines fucked up too, all red lights instead of green... circle of death they call that right... funny thing is I only use my 360 for connecting my MP3 player, last week I turned on my 360 and IMMEDIATELY plugged in my MP3 player and that's when things went wrong...  :(
