It will depend if your machine is still under warranty or not. Your best bet is to contact Microsoft directly and go from there.

Put it in the xbox 360 and it asked me to install an update. i done this as i always do when asked then almost straight away the screen froze. I put in another game and it was fine so i took SC4 back to the shops and replaced it with another one.Played it for 10 minutes then it crashed again. I turned it off then on again then i saw what i was dreading. 3 red lights. I always thought it would never happen to me. Oh well gonna send it back to Microsoft as they said they will fix it for free. I hope it comes back in time for Fifa 09 otherwise people will see a grown man cry. I have just bought SoulCalibur 4.

If u get those 3 red rings apparentley its because something inside melts from over playing it. So my mate told me if you get 2 thick towels n wrap them round your console it melts that thing back into place... Ive not tried it yet but will let ya know if it does :D I don’t get it ive had my 360 for about 2-3 years and nothing went wrong with it until now.

What i wondered was if they only offer you a replacement 360 and not to actually have it fixed because i dont really like the sound of them giving me a brand new one as that might just bugger up about 7 months down the line. anyone know?

I got mine second hand from a game store and they did not even blink when I took mine back. There is such a problem with the first batch that I think they replace them without question. @reida, as Pez King said your best bet is to take it back to where you purchased it or talk to Microsoft.

I dont know the exact details, but they have extended their warranty to cover the ring of death so you should still be covered. not sure how old your 360 is, so may be covered anyways. You can try reverting to online manuals etc, but is probably easiest to contact Microsoft since they wont charge you if you are still under the warranty period, which you more than likely are. So close to xmas....sucks eh ! good luck. You need to contact Microsoft to do this the safest way.
