Microsoft? I don't think there are any third party repair places, at least that are "authorized."

I would think that you would know first off, that there is much hate here for micro$oft and the 360. Second call micro$oft. Third go buy a ps3 and leave us alone about it. ( I also own a 360 and I love mine but this is not the place to talk about it here.)

Unfortunately, you have to send it back to Microsoft.. at least its still under warranty. In the mean time you could do the good ol' towel trick.

I was just messing with you ... not trying to be rude. You would have better luck with google than asking here probably. Good luck getting it fixed

even though this site is NOT a Playstation forum (like the above poster said). Many of us are Playstation fans that have strong resentment towards the xbox for its lack of an HD optical drive (we are an HD forum) and its former support of the inferior HD DVD format.

What you did would be like a Red Sox fan posting in an unofficial Yankees forum that his David Ortiz jersey ripped an he wants to know where to fix it to get it stictched up.

Did you call them about it? A friend of mine got his repaired and came back with a different problem, namely it was scratching discs. He took too long to call them about it and by the time he did they told him that it had been more than 90 days and they couldn't repair it for free.

Call them right away if you haven't done so.

But as far as your question, I don't know of any other place besides Microsoft. They'll repair it but they may charge you.

your being rude coming here with your half sentences and your giant font and capslock. don't come on a forum that says Blu-ray games and PS3. Can your 360 play blu-ray games. NO. so go somewhere else instread of starting a flame war or go in the off topic discussion. it's not like typing red ring of death won't get you responses on google

Well called them and they said its no longer under warranty because we had sent it in previously for the same issue, we are using the towel trick to make it work now

tell them thats BS, because it is. Just threaten or say you are going to join a class action lawsuit if they don't fix it. If they act like they have never heard of these lawsuits, call their bluff. They'll fix it.

DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT COULD POTENTIALLY VOID THE WARRENTY.
