ok guys i gonna need some advice on what to do.
ok i have an xbox 360 and a week ago it stated blinking red in the lower right quadrant.i did everything xbox.com told me to do still not working.now this problem is a hardware failure.
now i will turn on the xbox without the av connecter and it will turn green and then when i plug the av connector back in 5 seconds later it will start blinking red again.now i know for sure that it is a problem with the av connector of some sort but what im wondering is, is it a problem with the cord itself or is it a problem where you plug in the cord in the xbox.now if you guys cannot help me what should i do
1.sent it to microsoft to get it fixed(dont really want to do)
2.go buy a new av connector cord
3. or buy a new xbox (dont really want to do)
alright guys thanks for your help

The best thing to do is
1. Box it up
2. Pour gas on it
3. Light said box
4. Get a real game system

Bring your xbox w/power pack to a game store. Game Stop, or even better Play-N-Trade. They should have an extra AV cord out they can connect to one of their tv's. If the new cord works, there ya go.
However, it's really interesting (read: bad) that your 360 is fine when the AV cord is disconnected. I think normal 360's should red ring when the cord is disconnected.

Its getting there... I really do think its the better system.. The price is what is killing it..everytime they drop the price they come out with another with a bigger harddrive so the price really stays the same...Luckly for me I have a 500gig ps3 lol

The 1st Halo was good... Second, meh, 3 sucked...the only thing it has going for it is the multiplayer... Not fast enough paced for me... Seems kinda slow..
Then again I play Unreal Tournament in Berserk mode...

I think it is a better system, but the Xbox Live blows the PS3's online platform outta the water.

Well, I'm talking about actual online gaming, as that is pretty much all I do anymore. Its more user friendly, and there is WAY more people online. Yes the 12 year olds get annoying...
