gt2437 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I would say semi light usage on a close to launch day 360 (build date 12/4/05) and it's first trip to the repair center. Unit has been locking up (audio and video with jaggies a few minutes after startup) and had a couple RRODs. What will they actually be doing to the unit? Replacing the mainboard/CPUs or just actions to keep the unit cooler and more efficient (ie applying thermal paste to heat sync, etc)?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoLiMiT06 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 They will most likely do something similar to the x-clamp fix you may have seen around the net. It really depends on console to console, I have one RROD and they just repaired it and sent back the same console. Second time I had a dvd drive issue and they just sent me a whole other console. Now I just bought a 360 a week ago off ebay for $50 that was having the issue you have and I did the xclamp fix and presto a perfectly working 360 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
