> WOW. Have you tried troubleshooting at all? I’ve gotten the red ring 4 times and NONE of those times has been a major issue. It can be any number of things. My first two were due to bad A/V cables that came with it, the other one was because the video wire wasn’t plugged completely into my A/V selector. The most recent one was because of a disc read error on one of my games (Table Tennis), where there was a deep scratch on the disc, it would play, freeze, then I’d get the red ring. There’ve been multiple people I know of who’ve had this problem and it’s an easy self-fix.

If it doesn’t, then yeah, it’s probably the console itself. If not, then perhaps you have an issue with one of the smaller components that can be replaced instead of waiting for weeks on end for a new one.

actually i’m not a dumbass and can successfully plug in component cables.

if that’s directed at me, i can assure you my troubleshooting skills are up to par.

note the post that indicates that i have 2 xbox 360’s and it is surely an issue with heat and the issue that has been outlined in this thread.
