I was recently playing Halo 3: ODST Yesterday... And i woke up in the morning, turned on my PC, (xbox 360 is plugged into that, and the transformer is also plugged into my 360, i had it like that (standby as you may say) for around 1-4hours (long distance between those hours, not to sure, went out To buy xbox live)

And then when i came home (power point was still on) i turned on 360 and got the red rings..

1, 3, 4, were lit, and 2 was lit a little bit also, its not the AV Cable, 3 bright rings and one barely lit one, if you can imagine on your 360 controller, where the lights are for Player 1, 2, 3, and 4

I got the rings at 1, 3, and 4

Any help?

I have no receipt
And my warranty is gone
The one year, although theyve extended it now, Im still not covered:S.

Please help. I don't really want to open it, Please list ALL The possibilities. I've tried without the hard drive on and still fails, Tried without a disc in it.

I also had a grinding noise after playing 1-2 hours on a game, and 35-55% of the time when exiting a game by pressing eject whilst in the middle of it, also when Pressing Y on the Blade to go to dashboard

can i reset my console somehow? I don't care if it erases my WHOLE HARD DRIVE in the process.

As long as it gets fixed.

Please help

Thanks
