I believe your Microsoft Xbox360 had broken down a couple of times before, this is what happens to as many as 30% of the people who have purchased Xbox 360. You are not alone in the world. That’s the reason why Microsoft extended the warranty of Xbox360 Console to three years from the date of purchase. The two most common parts that breaks down are the Graphics Processing Unit and the DVD-ROM drive. Both one of them will definitely give way and there is no way for you to fix it yourself. Microsoft had already known of this problem.

Something You Need are the serial number of your Xbox360 console set, the customer service number of Microsoft and lastly a can of air.

Instructions:

1) Always unplug your Xbox 360 from the wall and also the television set first.

2) Next blow away as much dust as you can out of your Xbox set using the can of air. Sometimes an Xbox will overheat due to the accumulation of dust in the box.

3) Next move the Xbox to a location where it will have better ventilation or air flow.

4) Next stand the Xbox 360 vertically, the reason why we place the console set vertically is because sitting an Xbox on it’s side has been reported to cause the DVD drive to fail so do take note of it.

5) Lastly, call up Microsoft customer support if neither of these works for you. They will replace your faulty Xbox 360 free of charge, provided your Xbox360 console set is still under warranty.

Always keep your original purchase receipt and serial number on hand when you call the Microsoft customer support line. They will definitely need the information and you can give it to them upon request immediately. Never ever modify your Xbox 360 or use any third party peripherals as that might void the 3 years warranty forever. If the above step is still not been able to solve your Xbox 360 problem, I recommend you getting the best Xbox repair guide now and the best part of it is that it’s a step by step guide in pdf format and digitally downloadable. The Xbox Repair Guide can get your Xbox set up and running in no time!
