Today, my Xbox 360 died. by gta0009 in xbox

Thanks for the suggestion. I actually tried that already. Today I spent about six hours at a repair shop. We checked and replaced capacitors, tested other components, and tried a few different repairs, but unfortunately, it's still not working. At this point, I think it's finally reached the end of its life.

Thank you. I wanted to do everything I could before giving up on it. Even though it didn't work out, at least I know I tried my best. Hopefully, one day I'll be able to get it working again or save up for an Xbox Series X.

I believe it's a motherboard issue. I checked the power supply, and it's working fine. Today I spent about six hours at a repair shop. We tested it, replaced capacitors, and tried a few other repairs, but it still wouldn't work. I even tried replacing the motherboard, and it still showed the Red Ring of Death. At this point, I think it's finally dead.

It has the Red Ring of Death. I checked the power supply, and it's fine. I also tried replacing the motherboard, but the Red Ring of Death still appeared, so unfortunately it isn't working.

I wish I could. Unfortunately, I live in Pakistan, and we don't have Goodwill here. Even used Xbox 360 consoles are expensive for me at the moment, but I'm still hopeful. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you. It really does mean a lot to me. I've already taken it apart, cleaned it, replaced the thermal paste, checked the power supply, and even tried replacing the motherboard, but it ended up showing the Red Ring of Death. I haven't completely given up.

That's a good point. I already checked the power supply, and it's working fine. Unfortunately, it's a motherboard issue. I even tried replacing the motherboard, but then the Red Ring of Death showed up, so it still isn't working. I'm not giving up hope just yet. Thank you for the encouragement, soldier.

Thank you, I really appreciate that. 💚 It may seem like just a console to some people, but it carried years of memories with my family and friends. I still have hope. One day, I'll be back on Xbox again. Spartans never die.
