I accidentally voted for Falcon. I actually have a Zephyr that had RROD.

I got one of the early Elites (Zephyr) and it RROD'd on Christmas Eve. A few days before I got mine back my friends Halo Edition RROD'd (also a Zephyr). Funny thing, I got a different refurbished machine built exactly a week before my original and my friend got his console back.

Poll is pretty inaccurate... People without 360s will obviously say no.

I only have had one RROD so far and that was on my V1. Luckily it happened a couple weeks before my warranty ran out so it was replaced. I probably would have got one on my other V1 but I traded it in for a V2 Halo 360. I now have two V2 360's one is US and the other is JP and both have been good to me.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but I don't see it addressed in the thread... How do I find out what build my 360 is? I know it came with a 20gb HD, wireless controller, and has the chrome disc tray face... I also know it's got the heat pipe extension on the gpu sink, and a 3 pin fan clip instead of the 4 pin that was on the fans I bought.

I had my launch system for 3yrs and 2 weeks, and just recently got the RROD

. I was considering on doing the X-Clamp fix, but I am not to sure. Part of the reason why is that the last step usually involves overheating the system for 20mins and letting it cool down for 20mins (Towel Trick) so I am wondering if just opening the 360 and unplugging the fans would do the trick.

Has anyone tried this before. and also how long has the 360 lasted before it got the RROD again.

Thanks in advance for any feedback

I got the RRoD 3 times with a Xeon. The first 2 times I was able to return it under the Bestbuy return policy. This last time my protection plan was up so I took matters into my own hands and fixed it using the screws method.
I read an article that Microsoft said the newest hardware will not have the issue.

Well.... my old x360 died but not from rrod... the ANA chip felt down (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) ... after that i tried soldering it and than i finished up with the good 'o' electrical tape (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) it works sometimes....

The new pro one (60gb..) has never suffered from anything (yeah it's 23 days old ...) except a voided warranty (i flashed it 2 hours after i bought it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sleeping.gif) )

So yeah... i'm pretty happy with it (for now... it has a falcon mo-bo (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grr.gif) i wanted a jasper, but hey... buying a fuck*ng arcade just cause you wanted a jasper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/uhh.gif) think NOT

I do console repairs for a locally owned video game store and I have yet to see any version of XBOX 360 that won't red ring, including elites and ones with the revised heat pipe heat sinks. Whether or not this is the fault of dumbasses throwing it in an entertainment center to bake itself is unknown, but either way I repair at least 2 or 3 a week.

does the newest model have x-clamps? yes? Microsoft is full of shit. Its amazing that the engineers refuse to accept that x-clamps are not a satisfactory attachment method for the heat sinks and that even with the heat pipe the graphics heat sink is still totally inadequate. You can't make gold out of a lump of shit, either pony up the money for a quality product or GTFO Microsoft.

I have an Zephyr Elite and last week I got the 1 RRoD (e74 0102). I almost took the matter into my own hands but glad I didn't b/c MS announced that this would be cover under the 3 year warranty
