360 Error

[Flashardy 10+ year member]

Friend has a 360.

Once he starts up the console it displays a Black Screen says about a dozen Lang's and displays the Error.

What is wrong with the Machine? I am thinking he may need the Mod Patch reinstalled?

Thanks

Thanks though.

heh. i got the red ring about a month ago. restarted xbox and it worked just fine, and has so ever since lol... i'm pretty sure it was one from the original batch too because the guy i got it from worked at best buy iirc.

I called my firend. It is bad AV cables or he just needs to clean the back of the AV cables. I gave him the Error Code and he total me what to check for. Seems like everything will be ok. He said 90% of the time that if it gets that code it is due to bad cable/dust in port.

always check your A/V cables. If they're unplugged just enough it'll set off the RRoD. Something like 40% of xboxs that go to MSoft have that problem only. Check it out.

So is it modded? If not, send it to microsoft. Your friend might still have warranty.

RRoD and A/V cables unplugged are two different rings......RRoD 3 lights flash-A/V 4 lights flash
