THE RED LIGHTS OF DEATH!!
 Try unplugging it from its power source and plugging it back in. If that doesn't work, you need to get it sent to Microsoft. (Two lights means that it's overheated, BTW.) |

^ Probably not. Not without invalidating your warranty.
Consoles are like cars. Some are just lemons. Looks like you got a lemon. I'm sure they'll replace it though. Especially with that new extended warranty they passed. Did you buy your 360 when it first came out? I never buy a system when it first comes out. Usually best, like most things, to wait 'til the bugs are out. |

I'd just send it in. It shouldn't cost you a thing, unless your warranty has already run out.

Yes, three red lights mean your 360's fuxx0r'd.
=[ Like everyone's said, Microsoft should compensate you. Not likely with money, but with a new system. |
