Ah, don't worry. The Joker tells me in one thread Intel is for fanboys and AMD is the way to go. But yet in another thread he reckons i should get a i7 if i want to used DD3, go figure :DQuote:

Use to be a more console centric gamers but ive moved to pc after my rig was able to handle some newer games to my satisfaction. And im addicted to cod online.Quote:

Good grief, I turn my back for a few seconds and look what happens to the thread. lol. Ok, since we need to stick to the topic. In the same sense when an AA support group says "When you drink alcohol, you get drunk, pass out, and it ruins your family life, so why not try Tomato Juice instead", I think this thread is still on topic "When you play your Xbox you get an RROD or E74, you pass it out the window, it ruins your gaming life, so why not try a PS3 (or PC) instead?". There!
"Hy My name is Omega and... *sniff* my xbox has RLOD. /whimpers."
A double power surge has just killed mah Xbox :mad: Along with a TV, a fridge and my DVD player :mad:
So anyway, what kind of proof of purchase am I supposed to try get if my Xbox is from Telkom? Anyone with any info?
Dude That Sux Ass. If you got it from telescum im not sure if the warranty covers it. Sorry I can't be of more help
Meh, it better ...... 3 years warranty is 3 years warranty :mad:
Thats very Strange ? when i swopped out my xenon 2006 model early last year i recieved a mid 08 model falcon and the power supply still fitted, the only difference was the power supply has a higher output then required by the falcons but its been working perfectly for over a year nowQuote:

I'm having muchos fun trying to get the receipt from Telkom ............. not :mad:
Im not pissed at the xbox for RLODing. It happens. Im pissed at the kak service we get here at the ass end of the universe. No where else is it this kind of issue. You have to wait a week or 2 at the most, im going on over a month.
Think i should phone a few CNA's to see if they have stock again and just buy a new one.
One of my colleagues got his swapout yesterday (after waiting about 3 months). He had a 2008 Falcon, they gave him a 2007 Zephyr as replacement.
Problem comes in that the Falcon's power brick is not compatible with previous revisions of the console. Power Bricks are not Backwards Compatible, only "Forwards Compatible".
So now he's waiting for them to order replacement bricks. Really wonderful service.
I think I too got an old machine from Mi Digital earlier this year. It's been treating me quite well and I sure hope the bugger stays that way!
On my 4th machine since April 2006 :(
I've had to return my console but it wasnt because of the RROD. Even with the new console I have I'm still scared dont wanna go without my baby again
Just got the replacement power supply. So one Xbox (2 months to replace) and 1 incompatible power supply (1 week to replace) and I'm part of the Xbox community again!

[EDIT] Or, going by Strifehart's post above, not. Uh-oh.
As far as i know Mi Digital was liquidated but Microsoft already announced a new distributor
petrol + matches = fixes problem :P
/Casts Lv 99 Resurrection on thread.
After 3 months of waiting it will be here tomorrow. So lets all gather round and sacrifice a Wii to my good fortune.
So close man, so close! Remember to add Gennath to your buddy list :PQuote:

Well my 1st 360 just RROD. Was a good run however. Got the console at release and it has been roughly fine up until now. Just wish I had enough cash to get it replaced asap, but alas, that is not the case...
Friend had RROD, he took it to game where he bought it and they gave all R4000 for it (He bought it when it came out and it RROD end of last year) He added an extra R700 and bought the PS3!
Interesting... but I highly doubt I can get it replaced for nothing since I got it almost on release from a CNA.
yea they should give full refund and not what its going for now
