Hi guys, My suggestion to all of you without the 3 red light problem, is to call the MS customer service and report you have the red light problem. They will ask you to follow some instructions, you have to be in front of your console, and ALWAYS tell them the light of your power source of your console is GREEN, they will ask you your address and they will pick your console and bring you A BRAND NEW CONSOLE WITH 3 YEARS GUARANTEE. I did it this way, it really works.

Try wigging the power cord out a little bit and pressing power u will get 3 red droping xbox at least 5in will give you 2 or 3 or 1 red when your sistem has crashed you should have 4 thats a ring o' deth

Keep wrapping it in towels leave it in towels for about 1hr then after about 1hr but straight in to the freezer it will cauze the soulderin inside to crack in half then you have the red ring of death

I would try it, but im afraid that i will end up with a broken xbox. I think i will just wait until it finally bites it, then pay the 100 smackers.

Well i want the 3 red rings be cause my xbox does not have any picture when u turn it on so i would love to see my get it but until then i will keep baking it until it does i still have a little over 2 years left for the red ring warranty

It you have and problem besides there rings it costs to fix!! they send u a new one if you have three rings

No, i have the same problem, if your console breaks but doesnt have 3 rings, then its only 1 year, but if it does have 3 rings then its covered by 3 years. well people want it to have the red ring to they get a free replacement since microsoft will send you a free replacement console. Mine has a messed dvd drive and i think i'm just going to send it in for repair.

We got the 3 rings of death and called MS and they mailed us a box to return the 360 in, sent us a totally new one in less than a month. The will fix it if it gets the 3 rings. I have now bought a cooling fan ($30.00) to prevent this from happening again. Good luck.

My box freezes on every game i play, so ive been tryin to get the 3 rings for 4 days now, ive wrapped it in two jackets and only manage to get the 2 lights.

I just had the red ring occur, unfortunately, and I did not want the red lights. Just be happy your 360 works. Keep in mind you scammers that Microsoft will check the book code on the xbox to make sure that you actually did get the red rings. If you did not, they will send your unit back to you and I think you are also charged a fee.

Yes, the 3 ring light is the only thing covered under the 3 year warrenty, for $99.99 and free shipping both ways microsoft will repair your console, i'm in the process of doing this right now.

You dont have to do this cause MICROSOFT extended your Warenty to 3Years... so hope you never get the Ring of dead.

Wrap it in towels

This is a great solution for the 3 red lights, but make sure you don't have your warranty since MS now giving 3 years warranty for the 3 red lights problem: http://www.fixya.com/support/t142158-3_flashing_red_lights
Posted on Jul 22, 2007
As far as I know MS will only extend warranty to those who had 3 red lights problem.

If you get the Xbox 360 1 red light message, it means that the problem is either with the DVD drive, or with the hard drive.
Fortunately, the Xbox 360 1 red light message is not something that you should worry about. In order to identify which of the two drives the Xbox 360 1 red light messages is referring to, just look the code number that the screen displays. DVD drive errors are identified with the codes E64, E65 and E66, whereas hard drive errors are identified with codes E67, E69 and E79.
Once you identify which error the Xbox 360 1 red light message is pointing to, fixing it is really easy. The guide available at Fix-xbox360.info will tell you what to do in each case, as well as what to do in case you get any of the other Xbox 360 lights messages. Check it out.
