    If you have a problem please tell more about it in order to get a fast/accurate response. Is your xbox modded? Does the eject light flash? if so what colors? What was the last thing that happend before it started acting this way? Please be specific!

    my xbox isn't modded.
    The xbox is clean. I opened it up to see that the problem could be but nothing.

    AngeloE9, does your eject light flash any colors? Also what was the last thing that happend before it started doing this? You shouldnt have opened it, it could have been under a warrenty. Davidleal, if your xbox has not been opened, then the best thing to do is check if it is still under the warrenty.

    none of the lights flashes or anything.
    What is the thermak fuse?????
    In my opinion the problem is the motherboard.
    I dont think that my xbox is ntil the warranty yet because i bought it like 2 yrs ago.
    If i send it back to microsoft.would they fix it even tough its open?

    microsoft might not fix ur xbox cause the warrenty is voided. but if you ask them they might make you pay a fee for fixin the thing.

    and why dont you check the mother chip carefully for what... dents, scratchs...burns...

    Hey,
    It's either the motherboard or the power supply. Very small chance it's anything else.

    i think that that is a reasonable price but maybe you should check ebay or sumtin they always have halo 2 for cheap.

    I never found ebay very useful. most stuff is used and a lot of entries nobody even bid on. I just don't have a feeling of trust and security I get when I buy it new from someplace. Anyone know why most stuff have no bids?

    usually its because they haven't seen it yet, usually most bids come at the last minute or ita is because a lot of people already have what you are looking at or they just don't care for it
