I felt untouchable too bro. I didn't even move that fucker from it's perch once, EVER. I swear to fucking god, if I send that bitch in and they tell me there is some fucking loophole bullshit that I did so they don't have to fix it, I will shoot someone at Microsoft.

What warranty sticker? All I did was look online and it said I have a Warranty still.. Am I missing something? Are they going to say I voided it?

If you have that Nyko intercooler on there, you might want to take it off. Those cause fires on 360's. Microsoft has said that those void the warranty also.
But to get back on the thread, good luck with sending it in. I got a brand new 1 back from them went my disc tray wouldn't open. I sent it in at the begining of Sept. I got a brand new one two weeks later. It was so new that it said it was manufactured Sept. 9 2007. Also, I got a free 1-month gold because it took 4 phone calls for them to ship the box to my house.

yea those fans and coolers are no good. your also not supposed to stand your xbox up from what i hear b/c it will burn rings in your discs. i stood my xbox up wen i first had and it ruined 3-4 of my games. tho i also have several friends who tell me theirs has always been stood up and no problems, so who the fuck knows.

Keeps mine flat. I also make sure to have it in an open area for both the 360 and the brick that plugs in. I try to keep those two things from having heat built up while I play.

fuck I heard that as long as I get an intercooler i'll be fine. I'll have to look into that. I don't play marathon sessions cause I haven't gotten my LCD from newegg yet. I did pass out the other day and left it on all night. I woke my ass up and turned it off then went to bed.

No intercooler. If it is Nyko, I wouldn't take a chance. There is cases of fires that were caused by it. I know they probably fixed the intercooler, but I would rather just keep it in an open air environment with a fan on it sometimes. Also, you can set your 360 to shut off after 6 hours of inactivity. I think that it will turn off only if you are on the dashboard though.

Good to hear about the auto-shut off. I'll look into this when I get home.

kinda pisses me off... fuck, I have a Super Nintendo that still works and a Nintendo that works 60% of the time... controllers, games and all... still worl
Then I have a PS2 that freezes all the time and the controller that I had for just under a year, the rumble thing exploded while I was playing a game....
fucking technology
I had this VCR my parents got as a wedding present and I used it until I was 15... the VCR worked for 25+ years I think (I'm tired, my math might be off) in the 8 years since I have been through more than 10 $100+ VCRs...
