360

Well, all my stuff to repair my 360 came in the other day. I tried to repair it this afternoon... no luck. 3 red ring of death...

I'm going to try it again later... i was kind of depressed. I tried in halo 3 & my GH guitar controllers for in-store credit at gamestop... it only got me like $18.00 so, i still have a long ways to pay for the 199.99 arcade xbox (since all i have to do is put my HD onto it)

Please, if you can donate a little. It can really help, i'm also in the hole and barely making it as it is. I had to sell all my games... I only have Left 4 dead, street fighers 4 and gears of war (tried to sell it but it has little scratches) a 3 whole games now lol I had to sell others to get a little extra $$ to eat. Yeah, I sometimes have to go w/o eating or 1 little meal (canned food) a day... thats how bad it is...

anyways... I'm going to try again tomorrow and take some pics...

my xbox 360,,, is dead

Well, I've gone through about 3 or 4 xbox 360s; all which were shipped off in coffins and repaired. But yesterday, after about 2-3years of working ok... my xbox died... and I have no warranty...

Lets start with a few months back...

I noticed every now and then my xbox would mess up, either weird looking screen:


Or 1 red ring followed by the E74 screen... or no video at all...

But, it always worked it's self out when I restarted...

This has been going on for a little while... recently no video has been coming up almost everytime I start my xbox... I just restarted once or twice then bam, its back. Rarely the screen was messed up and I got the E74 maybe a couple of times...

Yesterday, I turned my xbox on... no video, no problem i'll restart it...nothing, restart again... nothing

I even went out early this morning and spent a little over $15.00 on a new cable... that was a waste of money.. it didn't work. I tried everything... display reset, switched from normal av to hd... nothing..

I read some things online and others have had this... something w/ the video output just dies due to overheating, playing to much, etc...

It will cost over $100 w/o warranty... I rather just go out and buy a new one... which i'll be doing when i get the $$ at some point... till then... no more street fighter 4... no left 4 dead... no halo, no netflix, no acarde games... nothing.. oh and to top it off... my WoW time card is used up,,, and i don't have the money atm to get another... yay.

I still have my old xbox, but no games (i sold them all) but at least i can watch dvds because i relied on my 360 to watch them.. and HD-DVDs which will just have to sit there...

ok this is long enough... i'll stop here and have a moment of silence for my falling friend.... *sob*
