It finally happened to me.
I thought I’d avoided it but alas….it could not be avoided.
The dreaded ring of death for the Xbox 360. I will now go on a forced fast for the next 3-4 weeks.
The good news - the customer service guy was awesome. No hassles, no 20 minutes on hold. Just verifying address and contact info and the box is on the way.

that happened to mine too (ironically while Turner was playing on it), customer service was great, no hassles. They sent me a new one in about three weeks.

OK, I give. I know I’m showing my Xbox ignorance, but what is “The Ring of Death”?

The Ring of Death is when instead of pretty green lights around the power button, you get red lights.
And the machine freezes up.
And the earth stops spinning.

The good news is that customer service was great, and we got our repaired Xbox quickly. The bad news is that we’re seeing the ring of death again!!
