I'm Ben and believe it or not im just your average gamer that's pissed
off and can't handle how unreliable Xbox 360's are. I didn't have the
time or the money to be waiting around for Microsoft to repair my problem.
There
customer support techie guy told me I would have to pay $140.00 plus
shipping and handling and wait 6-8 weeks. That's just crazy!
I had a budget of $50.00 bucks to save my poor little Xbox 360 from the 3 flashing lights!
Coughing up$140.00 and send it in to our ring of death friends over at Microsoft to getting a refurbished one back 6 weeks later just wasn't an option.
Thats right 6 weeks later. "I wanted to get back up and running TODAY" and save myself those $100 bucks for something more important!
Like me you’ve probably tried
every trick in the book to get rid of the "3 Red Lights" right... For example:
Turning off your Xbox 360 and letting it cool. Doesn't work!
Unplugging all the cords then reconnecting them. Nope!
Taking it apart and blowing some compressed air to clean the lint off. To late for that!
Removing the hard drive. Nice try!
And if you were desperate enough you might have even tried that stupid "TOWEL METHOD"
None of those methods work! I know I've tried them all.
I
was spending way too much time looking the easy fixes and bullsh*t
guides that did nothing for me but again made me waste valuable game
time. Over and over again I bought guides that gave me:
- The towel trick (do you really need a guide for that)
- The worst slap together guides you can think of - I spent more time trying to figure out what ther pictures were trying to show me then fixing anything.
I was disappointed with everything I found and I just didn't know who to trust anymore!
A
few of my friends had the same problem and where in the same sh** boat
I was in. But they found a solution, a how to guide with tons of
pictures and follow along videos.
They were back gaming while I was debating sending it into Microsoft. I gave in and tried the guide they found "It was so easy to fix I couldn't hardly belive it"
Lets
just say not much besides charging you $140.00 for a nice refurbished
Xbox 360.Take this to the bank because your also going to be waiting
about 4-6 long weeks to see your console again.
I just wanted to get back to playing my Xbox 360 and play like I use to before this huge Ring of Death bullsh*t!
If you want to get back to playing your Xbox 360 and never have to worry about the 3 Red Lights you have only 1 option:
Option #1 "Easily Fix it yourself within 1 hour!"
