The Way to Repair Your Xbox

By Dino Ingram

So, you've fired up your Xbox 360 for your next gaming session. The drive starts to spin, the green ring of light flickers into life, and you slip a game out of its case. And then it happens.

Your heart sinks.

The once green ring of light has turned red, and you know that until you find an appropriate Xbox 360 fix, your gaming days are over.

But how do you go about finding an Xbox 360 repair and ridding yourself of the dreaded red ring of death?

Microsoft will gladly offer to perform the Xbox 360 fix for you, but at a cost. How does $140 plus shipping strike you? Well, that's what you may pay for Microsoft to perform the Xbox 360 repair if your console's out of guaranty. And to make this worse, you will be forced to wait 6 to eight weeks for your console to be returned.

"But my console's still under warranty," you assert, "I'm fine."

Wrong! You'll still have to pay for shipping, and that's $25 minimum. And there's the packing up to take into consideration, too. You need to make sure your Xbox 360 is secure for it's long and uncertain trip to an industrial zone in McAllen, Texas, right on the U.S.-Mexico border. Yep, you heard right. Your pride and joy will end up down there on the border for God knows how long.

So what are your alternatives for the Xbox 360 repair you desperately need? How about some of the methods you will find online?

The "Towel Trick" is a good example. If you're familiar with the "Towel Trick" then you may already bear in mind that it's useless and potentially dangerous. One respected blogger lately said that you're more likely to set your Xbox 360 on fire than correct the difficulty. The reality is, the fast fixes you may read about on gaming sites and forums simply don't work.

Your last option for an Xbox 360 fix is to take the machine apart and do it yourself. This isn't a new concept. Gamers have been doing this since the launch of the 360 - occasionally successfully, invariably disastrously. Until now, this "self-fix" has involved soldering bad connections within the console. But this is not something the average gamer should be attempting. This isn't a toaster we are talking about, after all. It's a piece of hitech apparatus. You are rather more likely to cause further damage and void your warranty.

So you want an Xbox 360 repair, and the Microsoft option simply isn't quick enough, cheap enough, or convenient enough. And the fast fixes you'll find online just don't work. And naturally, the "self-fix" is beyond anybody but a skilled technician, and if it goes pear shaped you may void your guaranty and cause further damage.

But don't panic. Now there's another Xbox 360 repair option. One that is easy, guaranteed, and certain to have you gaming again in less than 2 hours. And best of all, it's approved by tech pros who know the inner workings of the console like the backs of their hands.

Forget the tricks and fast fixes. Forget the hassle of packing your 360 up and returning it to Microsoft for months.

This is the only Xbox 360 fix you need. And it's the only Xbox 360 repair that is sure to work.

How good does this sound? Real human shopper support, total video instructions, and the quietness this Xbox 360 fix has been developed by tech pros who've successfully performed it dozens of times.
