So long story short is this.
I came home & wanted to stream a video from my Laptop 2 the Xbox360 like I have been doing for ages via the network & media center. The Xbox360 did not go to the main screen instead it went to a pixelated screen & this is what I saw next.
Fooking lame this is the "Ring of Death" I did some random fast searches online to make sure that this is in fact what it was & yes its sure was.
So has anyone fixed this before on there own console or has anyone ran into this "Ring of Death" ? If so how did you fix it or can you point in in the right direction please. I looked on
www.youtube.com & there is a few different ways to go about this but I do not know witch one works for sure
& I do not feel like sending my Xbox360 into Microsoft due to the Xbox360 being traded for a PC I built & I do not have the original receipt for it & I am afraid that Microsoft will try to fuck me on this.
But what is crazy about not having the original receipt for the Xbox360 is that I have the Target 3 Year Extended Service Plan & the "Ring of Death" is not covered under there 3 Year Extended Service Plan. I all ready made the phone call to talk to Target & they told me it was have to be repaired by Microsoft & so yeah Target told me that Microsoft might give me "HELL & SHIT" over not having the original receipt or knowing the the person that bought the Xbox360 & all there malling info
....
Well now I went ahead & called Microsoft & talked to
Osama bin Laden about the above info & Target was correct they want me to verify the people who bought the Xbox360 & there mailing address or phone number because the serial number on the back of the Xbox360 dose not match the info I gave them being my mailing info so yeah WTF do I do now ?
I then called around to a few local game stores in my area & I found that the average used game & console repair shop wants $75.00-$100.00 to fix this issue & they would ship it off & have it back @ there store in 5 business days. I went & looked on
www.craigslist.org to see how much the locals kids are fixing this for & they are say $30.00-$50.00 with a 30 day warranty.
So there has to be a easier way to go about fixing this. I know you can do it @ your home for dirty cheap but I have no clue on where to start. If anyone can assist me in finding what I need & know for a fact that it will work then please
HELP!!!!!!!!!
