This may explain my image problems the other day. Today Ive had all manner of problems with it. A 20 minute spell on moto gp gave me this.

I'm gonna try argos first tonight, my question is this I have the 3 year warranty which is on my 360 by serial number can I change that over?
 
Aye, does look familiar and it ain't good.

First. Take out all the leads. Leave it a min. Then plug them all in and try it again.

Second. Check what colour the power lead's showing.
 
Phoned them up, they wont exchange warranty if you get a shop replacement, I have to send it back via microsoft. Oh well time to box up the goods and send to the dustbin at microsoft. They better not send me one of the old noisy ones or I can see it having problems too ;)

"Well, I didn't get to game yesterday, but at least I am not sitting in a Microsoft repair shop... So that is something... "

LOL thats class. I started reading that thinking you typed it all up yourself, then realised it happens automatically :o
 
had the same problem with my 360 the day it was released and they said i had to send it back... so i thought bugger that and did this...

took the hard drive out, unplugged the HD lead and pressed power... the console displayed 2 red segments, then placed the HD lead back in and the HDD, powered up and it worked hunky dory... try it.

I take it this is standard fare and they aint actually gonna repair mine and send it back to me?

I went to turn it on today, then remembered it's not there anymore :(

I rang up MS today, how long does it take for the delivery stickers to arrive?

Delievery stickers? I got my through on email in an hour. i just printed them off myself. I phoned up on friday, they picked up on monday. Confirmed they got it about 2 hours ago with above email.

I'd love to have one back by friday, but I think its unlikely.
 
Well they don't have my email address, but the guy on the phone told me that i have to wait for some sort of sticker to be delivered, which comes with instructions to ring DHL (or whatever delivery company), who then come and pick it up after ive put it in a box and attched the sticker to the box.

The stickers for me took 7 working days (they ****** up) they are usually out within two working days. No I don't have a printer either :P

After that, a turn around of around 5 working days will have your xbox box. If it can be repaired they well, if not you will get a new one.

They don't send a box any more, so make sure you have a plain box, or a non xbox box too !

Excellent, missed not seeing you online :(
Also, I recommend getting Prey, one of the better games I've played in the last couple of years.
