We should probably start listing Gamertags and set up some ScionLife races. :D
Anyone who wants to race tCs, hit up TheYanman. (thats me!)
I'm off to work but I should be online sometime after 10 Eastern (unless the lady friend calls)

The 3 lights in that form mean your box is overheating. Sometimes it can come back to life if you cool it down and let it breathe a little.

You can (sometimes) get more specific info about the error by following the instructions to get secondary error codes, about 2/3 down the page here: http://www.llamma.com/xbox360/repair...rror-codes.htm

3 red led:
( i try to translate it
so... if ur box is too hot.. thats not a thing.. but because its get hot and cool down too much ... the pins on the cpu cant reach the solders because the motherbord is changing shape due the heat and cold and the solders is dead...
u can fix this, just need to resolder something around the cpu...
im not a pro.. one of my friend fixing these for living... he fixed tons of boxes this way...
ppff.. my translation is maybe not correct.. but i hope u guys see the point...
1) dont use it vertically!!
2) dont put it on the amplifier or any other devices wich is make any heat.
3)if u have some nice tv standing or something.. when u play dont close it behind the glass...

Actually, the console was designed to stand either vertically or horizontally. It doesn't make a difference as long as you don't move the console from one position to another while it's on. You'll scratch the disc that way.
Be nice!

True. I left mine horizontal and so did my friends, and we all got the ring. So it doesnt matter which way you stand the thing. I had a bad GPU, my buddy's overheated, and my other bro had his motherboard blow. So it doesnt matter. Seems to be a bad first batch of them since me and my friends all got ours the first day of release. Well now i have an Elite and it works great. I also have a three year complete coverage warranty on the elite incase it happens again. So if anyone needs 360 parts, i got them minus the GPU. later.
