Yes I got the three rings of death thing.
It looks exactly like this...

Does anyone know how to fix it?
I will pay you for your services.
Thank you

Woops forgot to mention, it's modded as in it plays burned games. I think if microsoft notices that it's been opened they will void any kind of warranty.
Mine was flashing red in the left top and bottom parts of the ring tonight. I was watching Smokin' Aces on the HD drive and it just shut down. I think it was an issue with the disk though, it kept doing it in the same spot in the movie.

this happend to me one time..right when it happend i turned it off and unplugged everything...let it sit for 5 mins and turned it back on..worked perfectly and didnt happen again.
THE only fix i have seen for the red ring of death is the towel trick just google 360 towel trick and u will find it. some say its only a temp fix but still a fix. if not u can umm :cough cough: buy a new one and switch :cough cough:

It happens all the time, Fry's for instance, is notorious for simply slapping a lower price on return items and tossing them in the "go back" bin...
I'd do this before trying to work with MS...

It happened once before. I did the same thing and it worked for a month after that, then it finally went to crap.

You may want to try sending it in. After mine broke I sent it in and I do not even think they looked at it. They sent me a new (refurbished) x-box with a letter saying that due to efforts to conserve time microsoft sent me a new one and will keep mine and refurb it for someone else. If this works I guess you will lose your modded xbox.

You really think a big company like MS took a 360, and sent you a refurbished one without looking at yours? They will do anything to lower their losses. When halo3's demo was released so many people were banned of xbox live because they had modded 360's all because MS didn't like it. I'm sure they will void my warranty just as easily.
