"My Xbox is Dying!"

Perfect timing. Halo 2 and Pro Evo 4 are due out and my Xbox has decided to die out on me.

It's still working at the moment, but the fan has gone really loud, the disc tray wont always open (gets jammed on nothing as if the sliding mechanism is loose) and as I've already previously stated, the DVD playback has gone all dodgy.

I really am going to have to consider getting a replacement and transferring all the game saves I can to the other.

I hope it does last me throughout Halo 2 and Pro Evo 4...I don't want to fork out on a replacement til atleast after Christmas!

My warranty runs out in November 2003 :P

I did give them a call about my faulty DVD drive and they said it was definately a hard drive problem and that for £80 they'd have it sorted.

I laughed.

Can you get insurance on your Xbox? :D

I have a warranty and it runs out in January, so im safe for Halo.

I've got car insurance to pay next month - so I've got to be careful with my money :S

That's why I'm hoping it'll last...

I'd get a replacement now if I were you!
