Re: Can you just do this?

Do you actually have a 360 that has RROD? It has to be under warranty, which is 3 years from the manufacture date and the warranty sticker has to be in place. But yeah it's pretty much that easy

Re: Can you just do this?

no I don't have one that does but my one year is up and it has been scratching all my games but you have up to 3 yrs if you get the Rrod. I have never opened it before so the sticker is still on it.

Re: Can you just do this?

So you're wanting to do this for a new drive? Think the original warranty covers that I'm not sure you might wanna call them....

Re: Can you just do this?

Well i called before about my disk drive doing that but they told me the my one year warranty it up so I would have to get the Rrod to get it sent into and fixed. So i am wondering if i can just call in and say I have it and send it in and they will send me a fixed Xbox 360?

Re: Can you just do this?

Yeah I'm not sure if they test those when they come in or not....I'm sure they at least plug them in to see if they're actually RRODing or not...

You could give it a shot...if it works it works and if not they'll just send you your 360 back

Re: Can you just do this?

No it's really easy....they'll ask you for your name and stuff...why you're sending your 360 in. They'll take some basic information and you get a box within a few days.

Umm... you can give your 360 the RRoD if you want, just keep pressing the open button really fast

If it doesn't have the RROD it costs $100 for out of warranty repairs.
