By Jay Lenning

I guess this is every gamer's nightmare: you were just playing with your Halo 3 when you Xbox 360 completely went whacko. There's that hope for the four green lights to go back on but then rather you get the red ring of death instead. In this situation, what must you do?

Now the problem is to how to get your Xbox 360 running again. This very common Xbox 360 problem called the red ring of death is also called 3 red light. Instead of seeing 4 green lights on your game console which signify that your game console is working well, you see 3 red lights.

When you have this problem, you can automatically assume that your game console is going through a general hardware failure or a core digital failure. Before you eventually get the red ring of death, you will first go through a freeze-up. During this period, you will see a pinstripe or checkerboard display and hear a static sound.

Now to the solutions, if you want to do things by the book you can always send your Xbox 360 to Microsoft to be fixed. Of course, not all gamers are sold to this idea for practicality sake.

If you decide to let Microsoft repair your Xbox 360, it can get really expensive and you'll have to wait for weeks to get your game console back.

The other solution is to repair your Xbox 360 yourself. This route is pretty simple, cost efficient and you only need a 3 red light fix repair guide. What you should expect to get with your 3 red light fix repair guide is a pdf file together with a few video files. You can also get online support from the guide's website.
