Guys Im in need of serious help here my 360 which had suffered from the three red lights of death was sent to the repair shops but the guy said there was no spare parts availble to them so they cannot repair the 360. They also said that I could wait for six months for spare parts but im not that patient. So anyone in this forum can point me in the direction of a place that can guarantee a good shot at repairing my 360 will greatly be appreciated..

Guys my parents spent nearly RM1500 on the 360 I really want it to be repaired.
I know i sound kinda crazy right now showing emotion for a piece of tech but that thing was a gift.

I really feel terrible and very hurt inside (no joke really). Guys help me please.

Thanx,,,

There was some renovation going on in my room so I took a couple of blakets and covered it over my 360. Guess there were some sendiments of sand and dust got into the system. My fault, i assumed that all that stuff covering it would be enough,i guessed wrong.

Well theres a story to that...You know COD2 right? Well I bought a copy from there and it was the US version which could not work on Asian consoles but the guy persisted that it could and claims that I was cheating him. We had a real bad falling out and well my mom who was there vowed never to return to that store again even though I got a refund. Each time I pass that store i have to calook awy so the guy doesnt see me. Well funny how things like this can bite you back hard.

No no after the things I heard on this forum i didnt buy it.

err.. one question.. you covered your 360.. did you cover your power brick?

[/quote]

Yeah I did. Everything covered from the brick to the console itself

One way maybe can open up the 360, use compressed air or something to clean the board.

Maybe thats the way to fix it. But Im worried that the dust could have lead to something worse like hardware error or something..

you can try removing all the cables (i mean everything) ... and replugging all again....

also remember to run without the HDD... sometimes the HDD may cause the ring of death...
Nah I tried everything in the book. Do not want to do something like take it apart myself

did u cover ur 360 wit blankets while playing or whn its off?

cos if u cover wit blankets while playing.. i dnt think there's enuff ventilation going out of it.. poor airflow..
oh, & dnt cover ur power brick wit blankets as it gets really hot..

[/quote]

I didnt even play it when the room was under renovation. The fine dust must have got into the system.

Hey guys. Another development. Took my 360 to another repair shop. But the guy isnt an expert with the 360 . But he promises he'll try his very best and will reimburse me for any damages caused.

So wish me luck guys.


PS- I know the risks involved in this guy but my options are down to this. Once again.....

"PRAY FOR ME"

I specifically askd the guy no flashing, modding or any piracy related stuff. He agreed laughed and told me to be on my way.


Listen guys the more I wait the more I worry. Probably the guy might be gutting it right now!!!Jk calm down

But I AM WORRIED but god willing he might give it to me before November.

WEGAMAJU?? Hmmm never heard of them...Come to think of it I dont exactly memorize the names of the shops there. Some cheay you for all you are worth while the select few will treat you with respect as an avid gamer.

One more thing who is this Indian guy that can speak cantonese? seems hes quite hated here at LYN.

Wow so tell me this. Why is that guy so bad? Is he rude to you guys? OR let me guess He steals every penny each time one of you guys goes to his shop?

Where got???

Im me. A simple gamer wishing his 360 well. <sigh>

Hopefully when I get my 360(god willing) it will be fine adn and in tip top condition for years to come.

BTW tripleB

Your insult known as Smacktard is indeed very humourus I must use it sometime against someone.

Hey bros!!!

Long time i posted anything here but i got an update.

One of my fans in the 360 went nuclear on me. So the guy said he will fix it as soon as he gets the spare parts which will take quite a while. But on the bright side progress has been made.

So once again "PREY FOR ME MY FELLOW 360ers

AND SOON WE TOGETHER WILL CARVE A BLOODY PATH THROUGH

GEARS OF WAR"

Bwahahaha jk

Hey guys an update...

Um.....
Well the guy said that he had to order a chip from sg. I warned him make sure is not a MOD CHIP!!!

I really dont know whats going on......if by next week no progress im taking it away.

360 spare parts are hard to get according to him...but guys who here can fix my 360 in distress!!!

If you have been following my progress you know i ordered about 3 games and thing is i cant play them


Heres hoping for the best.

If not can you guys give me the names of guys who can help????

An electronics store in Ampang Park. The guy said he can fix but at this rate he wont instead he'll install a new mod chip at twice the price.

I dont knowlah but its a guess.

Besides where is metalgrindsolid's place anyhow if can i fix there

I have a feeling you're right....but giving him one more week if nothing persists and the chip actually turns out to be a MOD im taking it...

till then i might change my mind and take the whole thing back!!

also im keeping tabs on this guy now...

He has spare parts??? if so that would be cool.

THAT IS IT!!!!!

ENOUGH!!!!!

jkjk



I agree on Monday im getting it back. Till then i asked him not to touch it or else he'll pay the damages!!!

anyway by end of November if im good my parents will get me another one. And the fact that my other 360 has a good chance of being repaired i'll have two by the mid 07..

Thats the plan anyway.....heres to fate hope on my side(seriously)


I am not that happy right now..so that you know just concerned that something bad will happen....here to good luck

I told the guy not to touch it anymore and i'll come back on Monday to pick it up.

So i assume the guy will not and on monday when i take it back i'll take it to mealgrindsolids place eventually and hopefully it can get fixed till then im preoccupied with my finals.

Preoccupied studying for exams on Monday i have the day off co i can i pick it up...if he does mess with it i slash the tires of his car

Seriously the guy said he wont touch it if he does HE has to pay...

Friend I feel your grief and know how you feel....Listen you coming down to KL anytime soon? If so a forummer here by the metalgrindsolid maybe can help if he aint busy.

Heck, im looking him up next January to fix my 360.

Okay guys update finally got my 360 back....Yeah i know it was supposed to be earlier but things got in the way...I got it back and the guy promised nothing was wrong so i checked it out myself and true to his word nothing was missing. So come January metalgrindsolid can fix my 360.
