I'm pretty sure if you are taking the time to check out this article then you probably know the legendary red ring of death that's related with the Microsoft Xbox 360 console. In case you aren't familiar the RROD it's when three red lights flash continuously on the Xbox console.

The Xbox 360 has been connected to numerous problems but today I'll tell you different ways that I have heard how to fix the Red Ring of Death. Remember that I guarantee none of these solutions. If you try any of these methods it is at your own risk, okay?! This is just a guide to let you know of the available solutions besides, trashing it or selling it at a garage sale.

My first hint is that you call Microsoft help desk. You should do this especially if your warranty is still valid. Do not play with any of these tips if it's still valid because the warranty becomes null and void.

My second hint is that you try to "fix it with towels". (WARNING this "trick" is dangerous, you can lose your machine forever!) The towel trick is when you take a few towels and wrap your console in them while it's on (take out the controllers) lay the console on a smooth surface.

You keep your console wrapped and on for at least fifteen minutes. When the fifteen minutes have passed turn the system off and wait for fifteen more minutes to allow the system to cool down. Once you've done this turn it back on and wa lah. You should have all green lights. If this is not the case then please call your nearest funeral home and have them send the undertaker over to bury it! But all hope may not be gone check out our third suggestion.

My third hint is Plug It Out! Yes I know it might sound silly that I'm saying but check this out a lot of people have written in and said they were able to sufficiently handle the problems of their console by unplugging every cord that went to the system. After this you turn the system back on. If it comes back on then you turn it off again and plug everything back in and the system should work.

Finally the best solution is this step by step guide that I've found recently. With this guide it was nothing to fix the red ring of death. I highly recommend you to check this out, you will love it.
