Simon Veteran Posted August 10, 2006 Veteran Share Posted August 10, 2006 Argh, everything has hated me lately! The most recent evil thing in my lifew: Xbox 360 (to add to my bike and laptop). I had friends over the other day, and we were playing Fifa 06 on my Xbox 360, and suddenly the game froze. So, I cleaned the disk, and everything was fine. Then, after a few games, it froze again. I cleaned the disk, and restarted the system, and it froze on the Xbox bootsplash. I turned it on using the eject button, and the drive ejected, I took the game out, but the green light on the console didn't come on. A few seconds, the light turned red (dun dun duunn). I gave up, and we went to play monopoply (Monopoly will never overheat, have a broken chain because of a bad bike repairmen, or randomly freeze). After that, I decided to start the console again. It works now, but I have a dfeeling it will freeze again. I'll post when it does. Anyway, what should I do? I'm not sure how long the warranty is, does anyone know? Thanks,, simon360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windam Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 does MS give people a hard time when getting their 360's repaired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magik Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 does MS give people a hard time when getting their 360's repaired? Not at all, most people that I have heard from have had a very pleasant experience with repairs if needed.@simon360: it sounds like it may be a heat issue, try repositioning the console somewhere where there is ample ventilation.
