What to do with dying xbox 360

[ric1287]

Ok, so i am now on my second 360 (the first replaced by the compusa warranty). Now the new one, which is about 5 months old, freezes after about 30 min. of doing anything. No errors or red lights, just locks up.

So i can....

A- turn it in for Compusa warranty and get a new one. And then rebuy it for 60$

B- use M$ new extended warranty, and possibly lose my Compusa warranty since i may get a refurbished one.

C- Get that nyko aftercooler thing to cool it off.


Any ideas?

Beware of the Nyko Intercooler

If you try any cooler, I would try the USB powered one that Wal-mart sells.

yeah i guess ill stay away from that one. Does M$ send you a refurb or fix the one you send in? I want to avoid cashing in my warranty from compusa for the 2nd time.

I don't know anything about compusa warranty, but what would you have to rebuy for $60? Is the compusa warranty only good once and not for a specific amount of time?

yeah it has like a one time use thing i guess. They just give you a brand new one on the spot, and the warranty is then void i guess.
