They have a different policy for the 3 red lights error. Call and ask, they are pretty good about fixing that one or swapping it straight up with a refurb.
If not, please let me know, I will buy it off of you!
called micrsoft again, they are going to fix it for free, and give me a month of xbox live free also. but im without for 3-4 weeks, oh well.
