Red lights..
I had the red lights happen tonight. So I decided to try the towel trick. That seemed like it might have worked. But then later the 360 froze and I got the red lights again.
So I guess I will wait until the elite comes out. Wonder if I could sell this on ebay. I know hackers have tricks to revive systems.

Is the unit still in warranty, or would it cost you the $140 to fix?
Honestly, unless you need the HDMI or the larger hard drive, with the new warranty policies at M$ I'd recommend returning it for service. You'd likely get a new one given its age, and irregardless it would come back with another full year warranty on it.\r
\r
If you do decide to get rid of it, let me know - I might do the leg work if it means saving some money for another 360 (need a 2nd for my kids ... they can't ever get on mine :D ).\r

I could use the hdmi, larger hdd, and black. Black fits my entertainment center. HDMI will allow me to finally have surround sound for my hdtv shows, and I am thinking of renting movies off their service now that they have a good selection.\r

How does hdmi do that? I only have one optical audio input on my receiver. If I plug the 360 into my tv with hdmi, I can then plug optical from tv to receiver. Hence both the 360 and HDTV will get surround sound.\r

We'll see what happens this weekend.
Yep, I can;t do anything stressful. R6, GRAW2, and Crackdown freeze up almost instantly in the menu. GH2 I can play about 5 songs before it freezes up. \r
\r
Though when I had it to my parents this weekend GH2 did not freeze up. I wonder if there is an issue with my power source or something. I am going to try a couple of things.\r

Right now if I can just play GH2 I will be happy. Just last long enough for me to find an elite.
