Manicm Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 My repair/replacement was sent to southampton but that was over 18 months ago, perhaps with uk market being awful perhaps ms bailed out early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illdog Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Ill add my Elite to the pile of shit 360's, its not reading discs at the moment. Takes two or three times to get anything to load and it wont load Halo at all. Ive read about cleaning the laser and changing a board within the drive but... im not that way minded. Fucking load of crap. Someone help me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 If you haven't already, I'd get the old original 360 to red ring, then send it off quick smart for it to come back before the Elite dies, which from the sounds of it, is very soon. Sorry, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 And my Elite still carries on regardless. I've probably just jinxed myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambob Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Which is the biggest mystery of all considering your cat thinks its a cat warmer, it must be clogged with fur, maybe that helps it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I've had a broken 360 sitting around for a couple of months now. It works fine without an HDD attached. But with one attached, it crashes regularly. Like after, say, 20 mins. No idea what to do with it. I'm loathe to pay MS 60 quid to fix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the Wii. I've always given the 360 power brick a lot of ventilation. The 360 itself has always been horizontal, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do what I did and just send it back saying its the three red rings error, they fixed mine and it had every error other than the three red rings.

What if they don't fix the problem with the HDD though? Chances are they'll fix the other bits but it'll still fail when an HDD is connected. Hmm might be worth a bash though.

Sambob Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I guess it depends on how much of a problem its causing you, If it were to crash out mid save and wipe your entire HDD then that might be a problem. I took that view that the worst they can do if you send it off is to send it back and then you carry on as it was before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took that view that the worst they can do if you send it off is to send it back and then you carry on as it was before. With a memory unit, it works perfectly. Connect a HDD and it crashes constantly. I think I'll give it a bash anyway. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illdog Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Some thick looking cunt just picked up my well packaged 360 so its off to Germantown as Sam put it. Shoddy piece of shit. I need to change my ways and play more PS2 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
