Title: Murphy's Law is a bitch...
Post by: ferrarimanf355 on March 02, 2007, 08:53:16 PM
So, I go home today, ready to have a week of gaming now that it's spring break. The first thing I do is start downloading the Alien Homnid HD demo, and the thing freezes. No problem, I think, I'll just reboot it. Guess what happens next?



Yep, the three red lights of death.  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

Fuck, now I have to interact with my family and go outside all this week.   :'(

My second 360 is still going.  It used to be flaky on a regular basis, but it appears to be fine.  Haven't had a problem since at least last year.  It was so bad that I was expecting it to die.

I had red ring once, just turned it off for a week and when I went back to it, it was fine.

It appears that I diagnosed the problem. It was the "poor ventilation" deal. I will fix that shortly. :)
(This should explain why I got an achievement in TDU after I posted this...) :)
