One of my customers in Burton on Trent recently had a Microsoft Xbox 360 with the Ring of Death (RROD) and they have tried the various methods on You Tube to resolve the problem most common described is rapping the Xbox in a towel.  These do work but only for a very short period of time.  Or you could get it modified but that’s going to cost money and will invalidate the warranty.  So what would I suggest well Game station in Burton on Trent offer a 3 year warranty for something like £30 and they will sell you this even if you haven’t got the receipt.  But once you’ve done this they will exchange the xbox 360 for you (reconditioned) and also remember it’s happy gaming for 3 year because you have the warranty.

Hope this helps someone !
