I truned on my xbox 360 and it started flashing red around the on button then it said to go to www.xbox.com/support so now i woundering how i can fix my xbox.

You have the red ring of death.

Your xbox isn't getting enough power or the xbox is overheating...

There was a design issue with the older xbox's that caused them to overheat.

If you can return it or exchange it it would recommend doing that.

If not, I used this method to get mine working:

It was a weekend project. My xbox worked for a short time after then died again.

Its the Red Ring of Death. It can be fixed but extremly complicated and I definatly dont recommend attemoting it but will provide a link of a video that shows you how WARNING you need special tools to take the 360 aprt. Microsoft had started to warrenty against this problem for more than a year have heard up to 3 years but have never verified it.
I have included Microsoft Xbox customer support link and thats what I suggest

hello sir

Solving Your Red Light Flashing:

1) Remove your hard drive and/or memory units.
2) Run "Initial Setup" under the system blade.
3) Decline inserting HDD or memory unit when prompted.
4) Sync your controller and pop in a game.

Fix-shadow

Four lights around the power button flash red on your Xbox 360 console. Four flashing lights indicates that the console does not detect an audio/video (AV) cable.
Note Four flashing red lights will not appear on consoles that have both an AV port and an HDMI port.
