Steps To Fix Your Xbox 360

By Calvin Mosley

So, you have fired up your Xbox 360 for your next gaming session. The drive starts to spin, the green ring of light flickers into life, and you slip a game out of its case. And then it happens.

Your heart sinks.

The once green ring of light has turned red, and you know that till you find an acceptable Xbox 360 fix, your gaming days are over.

But how does one go about finding an Xbox 360 repair and ridding yourself of the scary red ring of death?

Microsoft will gladly offer to perform the Xbox 360 repair for you, but at a cost. How does $140 and shipping strike you? Well, that is what you'll pay for Microsoft to perform the Xbox 360 fix if your console's out of guaranty. And to make this worse, you will be made to wait six to eight weeks for your console to be returned.

"But my console's still under warranty," you say, "I'm fine."

Wrong! You'll still need to pay for shipping, and that is $25 minimum. And there's the packing up to take into consideration, too. You must make sure your Xbox 360 is secure for it's long and uncertain trip to a business zone in McAllen, Texas, right on the U.S.-Mexico border. Yup , you heard right. Your pride and joy will end up down there on the border for God knows how long.

So what are your alternatives for the Xbox 360 correct you desperately need? What about some of the methods you'll find online?

The "Towel Trick" is a good example. If you're familiar with the "Towel Trick" then you will already be aware that it's useless and potentially dangerous. One respected blogger latterly said that you are much more likely to set your Xbox 360 flaming than correct the problem. The truth is, the fast fixes you'll read about on gaming websites and forums simply don't work.

Your last option for an Xbox 360 correct is to take the machine apart and do it yourself. This is not a new concept. Gamers have been doing this since the launch of the 360 - occasionally successfully, usually disastrously. Until now, this "self-fix" has concerned soldering bad connections within the console. But this is not something the average gamer should be attempting. This isn't a toaster we're talking about, after all. It's a piece of hitech apparatus. You are rather more likely to cause further damage and void your warranty.

So you want an Xbox 360 repair, and the Microsoft option simply isn't fast enough, cheap enough, or convenient enough. And the quick fixes you'll find online just don't work. And of course, the "self-fix" is beyond anybody but a skilled technician, and if it goes wrong you'll void your guaranty and cause further damage.

But don't panic. Now there's another Xbox 360 fix option. One that is straightforward, guaranteed, and guaranteed to have you gaming again in less than two hours. And best of all, it's authorized by tech pros who know the internal workings of the console like the backs of their hands.

Forget the tricks and quick fixes. Forget the trouble of packing your 360 up and returning it to Microsoft for months.

This is the sole Xbox 360 repair you need. And it's the only Xbox 360 repair that is certain to work.

How good does this sound? Real human customer support, complete video help files, and the quietness this Xbox 360 repair has been developed by tech pros who've successfully performed it lots of times.
