Xbox not working

[gc8aido]

Xbox aint working right.

Mate of mine had a lend of it there a while back and GTA4 froze so he took out and gave a wipe...

Then he put back in and same problem, would load to certain point and just load without even getting into the game

Bought GTA4 again and whacked it on the other night, it started from where he left off and shortly after it froze again

Any ideas on what could be?? Or anywhere that fixes them?>

Bought about 1.5 yrs ago now in Tesco so wouldnt have warranty i dont think

Cheers

Thats exactly what was happening mine just before i got the Red Rings. If it turns out that is your problem Microsoft will repair it free of charge even if your warranty is out.

Microsoft extended the warranty after all the red ring problems, you can contact them using the below link and they'll organise to collect it and get it repaired for you free of charge.

If its out of both warranty's, I can repair them in the shop

I can look at it no bother man. The extended warranty is only for the red ring problem so they might not cover your problem.
