So, you've fired up your Xbox 360 for your next gaming session. The drive starts to spin, the green ring of light flickers into life, and you slip a game out of its case. And then it happens.

Your heart sinks.

The once green ring of light has turned red, and you know that until you find an appropriate Xbox 360 fix, your gaming days are over.

But how do you go about finding an Xbox 360 fix and ridding yourself of the dreaded red ring of death?

Microsoft will gladly offer to perform the Xbox 360 fix for you, but at a price. How does $140 plus shipping strike you? Well, that is what you may pay for Microsoft to perform the Xbox 360 fix if your console's out of guaranty. And to make this worse, you'll be made to wait six to eight weeks for your console to be returned.

"But my console's still under warranty," you say, "I'm fine."

Wrong! You'll still have to pay for shipping, and that's $25 minimum. And there's the packing up to take into account, too. You must make sure your Xbox 360 is secure for it's long and doubtful trip to an industrial zone in McAllen, Texas, right on the U.S.-Mexico border. Yup , you heard right. Your pride and joy will finish up down there on the border for God knows how long.

So what are your possibilities for the Xbox 360 correct you desperately need? What about some of the methods you'll find online?

The "Towel Trick" is a good example. If you are acquainted with the "Towel Trick" then you will already remember that it's worthless and doubtless deadly. One respected blogger recently stated that you're more likely to set your Xbox 360 flaming than correct the issue. The truth is, the quick fixes you will read about on gaming websites and forums simply don't work.

Your last option for an Xbox 360 fix is to take the machine apart and do it yourself. This is not a new idea. Gamers have been doing this since the launch of the 360 - occasionally successfully, invariably disastrously. Till now, this "self-fix" has concerned soldering bad connections inside the console. But this isn't something the average gamer should be attempting. This isn't a toaster we're talking about, after all. It's a piece of hitech apparatus. You are rather more likely to cause further damage and void your warranty.

So you would like an Xbox 360 repair, and the Microsoft option simply isn't fast enough, cheap enough, or convenient enough. And the fast fixes you'll find online just don't work. And of course, the "self-fix" is beyond any one but a skilled technician, and if it goes wrong you'll void your warranty and cause further damage.

But don't panic. Now there's another Xbox 360 repair option. One that is easy, idiot-proof, and certain to have you gaming again in less than two hours. And best of all, it's authorized by tech pros who know the internal workings of the console like the backs of their hands.

Forget the tricks and quick fixes. Forget the trouble of packing your 360 up and returning it to Microsoft for months.

This is the only Xbox 360 fix you need. And it's the only Xbox 360 repair that is certain to work.

How good does this sound? Real human consumer support, complete video help files, and the tranquility this Xbox 360 repair has been developed by tech pros who've successfully performed it dozens of times.
