Help, Advice On How To Save A 100 Bucks
« on: October 21, 2007, 03:44:00 PM »

My Xbox 360 started having bad overheating problems, like even if I turn it on for 5 minutes it will go crazy and give me two red lights and shut off. I called Xbox and they said that they don't cover it under the extended warranty, they only cover the 3 RROD.

My question is, is there anyway to make my 360 have the 3 RROD so it is covered? I don't feel like 100 bucks for faulty hardware.

Thanks in advance for any insight.
