Not a Scorpio model but soon after.
It’s been running fine even with a Kinect & external drive then when turning on it sometimes shows a E105 error. Then after a few resets & wiping the Xbox it won’t boot up again.
Even reflashed stock firmware from a USB key.
Also with just having shadow tomb raider installed it would give an error that I need to clear local storage, after it reset I’d deffo get the E105 error.
Also if disable Cortana it would reset & give the E105.

It sounds like a hard drive fault to me?

Anyway Microsoft thinks their 2 year warranty runs out 01/01/19 so I have arranged a repair from a local UPS & I have a shipping label for Germany.
My question is do I just give UPS the console in its box with no PSU / joypad?
Thanks

Fingers crossed I’ll get it back in time for red dead 2 :D

Just dropped it off at UPS. I was not instilled with the greatest confidence as they said receipts are not given anymore & they’re just sending it in the original box.
I left it with the lid not taped as it would likely be airfreight so they could check the contents but they didn’t so I asked them to tape the lid up.

Jees, when I used to work for DHL they were paranoid about security & would have checked it at reception.
Anyway if it don’t come back I’m going PlayStation so can multiplay with mates.

Damn November? I took the date from Game.co.uk website which must have been the date I ordered it then.

Only took a day repair + UPS time for Germany.
Report said software reset.
The screws have been butchered and serial sticker replaced with a service sticker currently dated.
Lost the original box but that won’t matter until sell when next box is released.

Red dead 2 is very impressive, once I get past the intro training hours it’s gonna be even better
