Is there anyone who hasn't had problems with their 360?

Every post I go to someone says that they had to replace their Xbox a bunch of times. What are they ALL faulty, or do people not take care of them?

 

I've had mine for several months and have had no problems whatsoever. What about you?

 

i've had mine for like 6 months, no problems at all

 

mine is working fine i think almost 6 month but i dont play that much.

 

I've had mine running good for 8 months but unfortunately I got the ring of death last week.

 

ME TOO!!!

 

yes all of the ones before the new ones were faulty bad hardware design caused problems mainly overheating.....

 

i have had mine since launch and still no problems, "knock on wood" haha.

 

People only post when their 360 has a problem. You're not going to see people post that their 360 is fine.

 

my is still fine but i got it 2 weaks we will see ,but they are all so badly build that those consoles on 90nm will not last 2 years we can bet on it u will see more and more them die ,i think all xbox 360 buyers need to take the biggest lawsuit in history and demand exchange for those 65 nm units that is the way in the world of electronics when u get faulty any piece of hardware that just has little possibility of failing u exchange it for something without that defect

 

I have had mine 16 months and it just recently quit it only flashed one red light and had an error code 74 they couldn't figure out so they replaced it

 

I never had one die on me, but I always kept them in a very open area like I would a PC. PCs have always been more delicate then game consoles, but Xbox 360 with it's bad designs is very fragile compared to an average PC.

 

Even though the 360 does have a design flaw that "could" make the device fail, if you keep the 360 cool you won't experience it failing. Some xboxers have added external fans, and other ways of cooling it that won't void the warranty.

ALL 360s are covered by warranty, they extended their warranty to cover EVERY 360 EVER MADE. They now have a extended 3 year warranty. So you can play in confidence. They have some over 1 billion dollars in reserve now to replace defective consoles.
So you can play with peace of mind. Just keep that box on ice so to speak.

How it happens: Core temperature rises, mainboard begins to flex,
as this flexing happens, the pins that hold the GPU and CPU to the mainboard start to snap at a stress point, maybe if more components
were "socketed" they wouldnt have this problem, but thats just my hypothesis.

 

So most of the time when people say their 360 died, they just overheated them and they would not work?

 

Good point!

Yeah, its just that I am getting one sometime this week, and I was just worried that when I got it, it would break in a few days. I just needed to know why all these 360s were breaking so I could prevent it from happening.

 

had my modified console for a few months now and everythings still going fine *touch wood*

i have stopped playing FORZA2 tho after all the reports of wrecked consoles

 

i have had it for a year and no problems. rarely there are crashes playing Oblivion, but that's Oblivion...

 

i have had mine for a year i think and no problems.

 

Oner you should stop posting this everywhere

And yes it is a "fanboy" rant or a "flame",but back to the thread I bougth mine in Febuary of 2006 and it died on me in June of 2007.Got it replaced by MS and no problems so far
