XBox 360 Elite my ass

Mine just took a shit and I've taken great care to never bump it or drop it. The best way I can describe what's happening is to imagine what the negative image for a particular photograph looks like. Well mine is flipping between working normal and the flickering of this "negative" image. Now it just started showing snowy lines on the screen but sound still works perfect.

Thing is I'm having trouble finding the receipt and I'm wondering if I'll ever be able to get it fixed without having to pay? Anyone have the answer?

well it froze on 2 seperate occasions, and wouldnt work, 2 times it scratched the hell out of my games, sent it back then too, and twice i got the red rings, so 2+2+2=6 times now.

Update:

Freakin warranty only lasts a year (and mines expired)for graphical errors which mine has.  There's  2 options to go about repairing your console and here they are

1.) I'll have to pay 99.99 (online) to get it fixed <----------I'm going this route obviously

Or

2.) 219.00 (over the phone) to get it fixed....


There's a 2-3 week turn-around time for either option


I found out that both of the above options RENEWS your 1 year warranty as well (That's the least they could do.)


"The Red ring of Death" repair is covered for free......


Lessons learned: Should've kept my alligience with Sony and got the PS3

wow thats shitty.... they always fixed mine for free, but then again mine started breaking shortly after i got it and i think they extended the warranty every time it takes a dookey.

Really?? Thats a big price difference between the internet and the phone. Wow.

Have you tried a new HDMI cord or whatever you are using? Or sometimes if i unplug mine from the tv and plug it back in it works again.

I've unplugged the component cables.....My HD t.v. isn't HDMI compatible. I've tried disconnecting everything and reconnecting but nothing helps.
