Ok I got it back, I also got a Intercooler so it would not overheat. I plugged my 360 into the outlet, turned it on and it runed smooth then after 10 minutes I seen the red lights flashing.:( What am I doing wrong?:(

Which quadrants are red? You could always try to get your hands on a multimeter and check the voltage coming from your 360s poweradapter, could be that this unit is unstable and is messing things up.

Or it could be that, like mine, your 360 is a launch console and therefore is subject to crashing and burning without any other real "excuse."

You know, possibly... :)

I called EB Games and they said they will trade with me, the only thing is I hope the next one is in good working order.

Something i did was take 2 old snes dust covers turn em upside down(so the plastic end is up) and put coasters on each then put that power brick on the coasters.

It keeps my power brick cool and might help you as well.

I bought a US launch console and I sent it back to MS about 3 weeks later for a new one. It hasn't been a problem since though. :)

How many lights is it? If its 3 its hardware failure however if its 4 then unplug everything including the hard drive, leave for 10mins then plug it all back in firmly - it should work.
