Title: HARDWARE FAILURE AGAIN!
Post by: NINTENDO_PAWNAGE_RAWK on March 22, 2008, 06:08:28 PM
This  is the third time I have gotten the gosh dang red ring and right when we were finishing Rock Band to, not to mention the portal song coming out and the legendary Halo 3 map pack.  :'(

How do I call to get this fixed again...  :-\

Dude, don't get it fixed again. Get a new one and plug your old HDD into it (Yes the HDD comes out). I mean come on. If it still gives you the ring after three fixes, then fixing it is not the answer. replacing it is.

I do not mean to disrespect you here, but from what I'm hearing here, tht's the only route I'd take.

Obviously.

Seriously people, few tips:

Place it Horizontally for better ventialtion
Leave it in an open well ventilated area
Don't use the intercooler, it sucks air into the system, along with whatever is in the air
Don't leave it on for absurd amounts of time (around 20 hours)
