Xbox 360 Repair Guide – What you need to know to repair your Xbox 360
Hey guys and gals,
My name is Richard and I love playing video games on my Xbox. Chilling out after school, trashing my friends (and a few strangers, maybe even you) on Xbox Live, these are my favourite things. The Xbox 360 rocks, as a gaming console. SIMPLE. The outstanding graphics and superb game play provide hours on end of entertainment. BUT, the console is also subject to breakdowns. The most common one is the Red Ring of Death (RRoD)
You probably found this site because you are looking for a fix for your Xbox 360. Allow me to give you an account of how I found a guide that actually works. About a month ago, while playing GTA IV (one of my personal favourites), my screen starts to flicker. Suddenly it freezes. Then I notice the three red lights showing on my Xbox console. I hadn’t experienced this before and it got me quite confused, that I rang up a few friends and asked them what could be done about it.
A few of them were thrilled that I wouldn’t be able to give them a serious beat down on Xbox Live; others gave me totally useless info. In desperation, I looked up ‘Xbox 360 repair’ on the Internet, and these are the ‘solutions’ I found:
- Some sites advised sending my Xbox to Microsoft, but when I read that it took up to 6 weeks to get fixed, and costing $100+, I thought to myself ‘No way, Jose’.
- Other sites suggested that I wrap my Xbox in a towel or two and bake it. What the heck??!! How can that do anything other than frying my beloved machine?
- Some sites talked about how Microsoft was in a rush to beat Sony and fitted the Xbox with a smaller cooling unit. Interesting info, but, at this point, I really didn’t care….
- Other sites had some crappy videos, while others sold some even crappier guides. I did find a few good eBooks, that tried to show me how to do fix my Xbox, but they were just not detailed enough. A few vital steps always seemed to be missing.
DESPAIR IS STARTING TO SET IN…
This was getting to the fifth day and staring at those red rings on the console was killing me. 
I was also getting really bored and angry. In fact, I was actually beginning to re-consider sending my Xbox to Microsoft when I came across this site.
At this point, I was desperate so I plunked down another $30 for yet another guide. I spent the next hour or so, reading the guide and watching the videos to make sure I digested all the info.
I was shocked to see all the bits and pieces finally ‘come together’. I thought to myself, ‘I can actually do this’.
HOPE ON THE HORIZON…
I got out the tools the guide recommended (You will be surprised to find that you already have them lying around in your home), and a few beers, 
. Leaving the guide open on my laptop to follow along and working on my Xbox, I was able to get my Xbox 360 fixed in about 1 hour 10 minutes. This was with a few bathroom breaks, though.
It’s almost impossible to believe. Here is a guy who was on a break from school, spends all day gaming, drinking a few beers, not technically-savvy at all, but I still got my Xbox fixed, on my own.
The videos and eBook break down all aspects of the process, from start to finish.
I have been telling all my gamer friends and family members who have kids with Xbox 360s, about this guide. The RROD is a problem that will always occur due to Microsoft’s blooper with the cooling units, but being able to fix for it cheap is priceless.
Maan, the $100+ I saved bought me a few more games, and some beer. Money well spent.
What you get with this guide:
-
Professionally shot videos that show you, what you need to do in detail
-
Fully illustrated, eBook with clear instructions on how to repair your Xbox 360, also includes a list of the common household tools that you will use to perform the fix
-
Great technical support – The guys who made this are also gamers, so they know how it feels not to have your Xbox up and running
The guide contains sections on how to fix:
- Distorted graphics,
- 2 red lights errors,
- E74 errors and other errors,
but hey, I don’t need those now, but it is good to know they can be fixed if they arise.
The choice is yours.
Cheers!
Richard
