Sounds like your Laser lens malfunctioned... The website that Lenny posted up sells them too. As for installing the part I'm sure you can find someone who can do it for you if you're not too confident in doing it yourself :)
cheers Lenny ur da man!!! ill check it out...
yeah i had that guy fix my YLOD. borked first time, but here's hoping second times the charm
Jst waitn 4 dis othr dude 2 get bck 2 me...
mate switching to xbox for reliability purposes is not a great choice, i'm on my third xbox which has began red ringing (oddly being turned off and on fixes it it, but surely on the way out..) the first was a launch and had a dvd drive fail, the 2nd was a 2006 elite, fucked out the month after warranty, this ones about a year old.
always been meticulous about keeping them ventilated and shit, maybe a few long sessions here and there but to me thats regular use...
i look over to my sega mega drive and super nintendo (with ssf2 cartridge in it 8) )both work great.
i sometimes think i should have gone ps3 but nah, gotta have the xbox control defnitely, the dpad is shit but the rest is mint
anyway...good luck getting it sorted. apparently putting in the dvd drive isnt too hard.
I must be lucky with my 360. It had red ringed once back in 08 and after that has been pretty good so far. Only thing that I notice is sometimes the console can be loud randomly. Other than that pretty sweet.
Was about to buy a PS3 but not sure if I want to. Is the YLOD covered by the warranty or must it be sorted with some technician to fix?
pretty sure its covered. ive heard the only issue with sending it to sony is that you might get someone elses refurbished unit and whatever wear it might have. getting your exact same console back i think costs extra.
Bro CGA bro.
5 years.
