So today my xbox got a red ring... E74 error apparently.
So what do I do? well, I consider since I got my xbox back in December 2009 (Christmas present), that I would have my warranty still(E74 error has 3 years warranty!)!
So I log in to xbox.com, type in my serial number, only to find out my warranty apparently ran out in May 2007! WTF! not only has my xbox broke in less than a year of use! (Yes I only started using it Jan '11) But that now I can't even get it repaired!
Not to mention the fact the thing had insane problems reading discs all year long even on brand new games which forced me into buying a hard drive just to store the games on.
Xbox support told me there was nothing they could do about it, because apparently the serial number says it was purchased 2006, when it clearly wasn't as I bought it brand new and sealed in December 2009, which I think is BS.
Also the new ones are way to expensive for me just to buy a new one, and my old hard drive wont even fit in them. MW3 and 3 months of xbox live gone to waste. FML.
(Not sure if this is the right section, xbox modding didn't seem like the right section :/ )
