Oh crap. Red circle of death
Folks my sexbox (xbox) just died on me. I have had it for just over a year, so probally outside of the warranty. Can I take it back to pc world which is the place purchased it from or shall I just chuck it away to buy a new one?
What a let down

When you get it back try and help it run better by making sure the console is well ventilated on all sides more so at the back so that the warm 'exhaust' air exiting from the console isnt just being forced back in if its up against a wall or in a enclosed space like a TV cabinet.
Hope you get it back soon, usally a quick service Ive been told
