...I decided to play Mirror's Edge this evening, having not played on the console since the weekend...

...nuts!

I'm getting an Elite in a few days, but even so, this is a pain...now I have to see if I can get it repaired...being 2nd owner I don't know how to go about this. :/
 
surely you should just be able to send it back to MS as i think they go on the serial number to find out if its still in RROD warranty
 
Ok, so I went onto the XBL site to sort out sending it back...

Now on the back of the console it says...

2007-08-06 :MFR Date

Aren't the RROD warranties for 3 years and not one and a bit? :confused:
 
Happens quite often (it coming back to life i mean), it's a sign that it's on its last legs, i would put money on it not being too long before it goes RROD on you again.

OK, well I've submitted a RROD thing to MS and am waiting for the label to be sent to my email, and have 20days to send it back, in a way I hope it does die properly...then it can be fixed and I can sell it after I've got the Elite. :)
 
While we're on topic maybe someone can help me, had a bit of fiasco with Microsoft trying to find out if i had the extra 3 years support i sent off for.

Do you get a confirmation after you sent off the application to MS or do they just not tell you, i get this when i try and register my console.
A problem occurred, and your request cannot be completed.
Please contact support to complete your request.

Problem is i phone them get some indian fella on the line who (kind of ironic) can't understand me and i cant understand him, and get passed between phone and e-mail support so i go around in circle's, i gave up finding out a few months back.

am i putting in my serial code in wrong?

would rather not go through limbo again and see if someone else know's about anything like this :D.
 
Had a very odd lock up the other day, mostly seemed like my fault but got RROD after reboot, pressed it again and all has been well.

Did notice some slowdown in Fable 2 though, but that might just because of level 5 vortex and force push ;)
