Same thing happened to my 1st console.....it'll just freeze all of a sudden with lines on the screen and with a loud screeching sound as a bonus.....after a while, came the dreaded 3RODs......

But that wasn't due to any update at all, it just decided to do it. So maybe it could be just a coincidence that it happened after you updated. I'd suggest just go and repair it, as it's more to a hardware problem than a software one IMO.

So wt hv u done on ur 1st console?

Where can we repair in msia as the only technical support for ms is in singapore?

Thanks

katana this guy haf the same prob as u

UPDATE: (I posted this at xbox.com as well, but wanted to share with you guys here in case it might help)

Just wanted to update everyone on my situation. It may help some of you, or it may not. I spoke with a customer service rep and believe it or not she helped resolve the problem. What she had me do was:

1. disconnect everything from the console (all plugs, controllers, network) as well as disconnect the power brick from the outlet.

2. Plug the power brick directly into the wall outlet (she said that it shouldn't be plugged into a surge protector as the console draws too much power and has a built in surge protector).

3. Reconnect the network adapter, power cord, and anything else you disconnected in the first step.

4. Turn on your console and go to the dashboard.

5. Clear your HDD cache (there is a code that must be entered - call support or search the internet for how to do this).

6. After the cache has been cleared... Reboot and all should be golden.

This has worked for me so far, maybe it'll work for others. Hopefully the problem will not return, but signs are positive because prior to the call to customer support the console would freeze up or I'd get the 3 red lights within minutes of being turned on. But I was just playing it for about an hour and no prob. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

Hope it helps.

how do we clear the hdd cache ehm...

Via Joystiq:



"HEXUS.gaming reports that a cache clear code has been discovered for the Xbox 360 hard drive via the dashboard's system blade. To perform the function, access 'memory' in the system blade, and then highlight the hard drive. Now press: Y, X, X, LB, RB, X, X. The following message should appear: "Do you want to perform maintenance on your Xbox 360 storage devices?"

If you initiate maintenance, the hard drive's cache will be cleared, including all software updates. "

HELPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

Its from penang (Megamall Pacific, butterworth), haiiiii die die!!!!

Sure the shop wouldnt wan to do it for me d!!

The last screen it hang show a lot of line at the memory dashboard then toiiii die!!!

:--------------(

send back to the shop and ask them send for warranty at msoft singapore. if not, courier on your own to singapore.

Just asked Connie of Imbi Mario ( +603-21487717 ) whether the shop can assist customer who faced with the 3ROD and was told that she can recommend somebody who might be of any help.

Mine also having the same problems, but thank god after few re-tries it manage to boot up the games, but the DVD-rom drive sounds very un-healthy, wonder it was really the update tat causes the prob?
anyone could retify it?
