Fixing Rrod: which method?:S

Guyz i got an Rrod, i hav read a couple of posts to fix it but i m nt sure till yet wat method to use.
i m gettin 0100 secondary error for which heatgunning nd X-clamp fix r recommended repairs.


Status: The console has nt gone total dead, it freezes during dashboard or game; when i restart it, it gvs rrod but wen i leave it switched on for abut half an hour nd then restart it again, it starts working den again after 5-10min later it freezes nd on da restart gives me red light.

pls help ...............nd can i fix it wid some easier method apart from clamp nd heatgun fix?

 

those are the only fixes other than putting the board on a rework reflow station.

 

Cant i postponed the repair nd lyk heat it up for 1 hour nd then play it ........will it work or would it inturn damage ma box

 

you will do more damage to the board. the worthless xclamp will work for a short time but it seems to always warp the board because people always make the screws so tight. overheating will cause more damage. people that do the towel trick are making things worse which is why the problem always comes
back. a reflow can fix it permanently

 

The Microsoft Repair Center is usually a good method. Unless your warranty is shot.

 

I've fixed about 15 rrod's and use the x-clamp. my console is actually a fixed rrod and it's been running for over 7 months. Everybodys I've ever fixed is still working to this day..

 

i prefer the free replacement from MS. has yet to fail me on any of the 50+ consoles ive sent in.

 

i hav viod my warranty !!

nd wats da reflowing method ? :S

 

is ther any guide on afterdawn explaining da reflow method !!

any help would be greatly appreciated!!

 

naw dogg, there aint na guide on da reflow method, ya have 2 take a look @ google for that shiznit.

 

Let's start from square one.

After researching some of that, then we'll be able to move on to any more questions you may have.

 

I'm with wabashman on this one ... you can't go wrong with the FREE MS repair. You'll get a new drive, upgraded heatsinks and a new motherboard of same the model (I've had about 20 done myself).

Just get your hands on another warranty sticker (paper or silver), slap it on that bad boy and send it off to MS.

If your console is too chopped up to send it back to MS (or was manufactured before July 2006), then you'll have to settle for one of the X-clamp removal processes. It may not guarantee you a permanent fix but you might get lucky if it's done right (based on the severity of console's problem).

 

oh man dont flame, it was jst a mistake writing void as 'viod' common understand da man's confusion nd scare (mine)

pls help nd about sending it to MS well i dont hav direct access to ms support centre neither can i ship it easily.

 

and a mistake in writing da for the, and nd for and, and about a million other ghetto ebonic text speak crap. and if you are able to get on the internet for visiting this forum, then you are surely capable of getting on the MS website for repair.

 

why being so rude i m just a 13 year old, i have stopped using shortforms (crapy text according to you) so now please please please help me i m begging u, i m so confused and i already told you that my warranty has been void since i modded my xbox so how could i hope for MS to help me. Afterdawn is my only hope. i have improved my spells, got crushed my attitude(i just begged you) what else do u expect a promise for life
anyways please try and help.
How do i repair this microsoft junk! (did i just spend $400 for 1 year use :S)
I m feeling like a retard searching forums but now its only afterdawn which can help (so whats reflow method?)

 

just do as someone else suggested and buy a new warranty sticker from ebay, and send the thing in for repair.
