Guest T®ITEC Posted July 6, 2004 Report Posted July 6, 2004 I apologise in advance if/because this is a dumb question, but I don't know the answer. I have the extended warranty, so I just have to send it in and pay shipping, right? Uh, how do I go about doing this?
AndrewTS Posted July 6, 2004 Report Posted July 6, 2004 Pack it up and send it to M$...however, the X-Box's size...and shipping... Ouch. I've done something similar with my Dreamcast before, but that's a big difference. Is your warranty with the store or M$?
Guest T®ITEC Posted July 6, 2004 Report Posted July 6, 2004 It's with Microsoft. My warranty is somehow good until 2006. Lucky me,... and my glitchy Xbox. EDIT: Okay, well, nevermind my whole ordeal. Done and done.
Karnage Posted July 6, 2004 Report Posted July 6, 2004 You should call them up. My XBOX had this problem with the video, so I called them and they sent Purolator to pick it up from my home. A few weeks later, Purolator sent it back to me.
Guest T®ITEC Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Damn I can't read I'm slated to send mine in and get it back in weeks... Maybe with, maybe without my saved games. Hours of gaming will be slaughtered for the price of shipping.
Scroby Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Buy yourself a memory card and throw all the games you can onto it. I need a new one myself, mine is starting to crap out.
Guest T®ITEC Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 The only memory card I have won't hold the saves for KotOR, which are huge. Guess it wouldn't do any good anyway.
kkktookmybabyaway Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Too much aggrivation for me -- I'd just buy a new console, especially if the one you currently own has had a good run...
Scroby Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 Oh yeah I know about KOTOR game save. Just beat the game as quickly as you can. I can't save it to my memory card either, along with Ninja Gaiden (you just can't save it to a memory card.). But I haven't played KOTOR for a long time and i'm not really tripping if I gotta start all over again because I would have to anyways to do a different ending plus I can flow through Ninja Gaiden in a matter of hours....I'm just that damn good.
Guest T®ITEC Posted July 7, 2004 Report Posted July 7, 2004 I've only had it since October and.. well, paying for just shipping > paying for another Xbox that will just die. Tomorrow I send my beloved to Memphis... ::sobs::
Guest Vitamin X Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 So it's an emotional attachment, then?
Guest T®ITEC Posted July 9, 2004 Report Posted July 9, 2004 More like an erotic attachment. I didn't say that.
Guest Vitamin X Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 Yes you did. My Xbox vibrates at times though, so it's understandable...
Rendclaw Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 On a similar topic, I need to do the same thing to my old PS2, as my girlfriend is clamoring for me to get it fixed so she can take it home and play it. I have a new one, so that isn't the issue, but I am having trouble finding a place that repairs them. Its over a year old, and I know that the shelf life of this system clocks in at around that mark, but if I can get it fixed without having to just junk it and buying a new one for her, I'm down with that.
Guest bigm350 Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 I thought only PS2's crapped out. Now we're starting to have an X-Box crapfest too?
Agent_Bond34 Posted July 10, 2004 Report Posted July 10, 2004 I thought only PS2's crapped out. You thought wrong.
Scroby Posted July 11, 2004 Report Posted July 11, 2004 I thought only PS2's crapped out. Now we're starting to have an X-Box crapfest too? It all depends on what kind of harddrive you have in your Xbox. If you have the thompson drive your Xbox is most likely gonna crap out.
Guest Vitamin X Posted July 11, 2004 Report Posted July 11, 2004 How would one know if someone has this infamous Thompson Drive or not?
Karnage Posted July 12, 2004 Report Posted July 12, 2004 How would one know if someone has this infamous Thompson Drive or not? It depends if the tray is a lightbulb shape, has dots or is just round.
Guest KJ Brackish Posted July 12, 2004 Report Posted July 12, 2004 Rob, bring it over and I can port your saves over to my xbox via my ethernet cable. I just bought my xbox (yes.... AGAIN) yesterday, so bring it over and we can salvage some saves. (I also bought KOTOR.... te he he). KJ
MarvinisaLunatic Posted July 12, 2004 Report Posted July 12, 2004 I thought only PS2's crapped out. You thought wrong. I heard that the X Box and PS2 both had about the same defective rate although theres a higher number of defective X Boxes because there are fewer X Boxes than PS2s. I didnt even see anything about the Gamecube.
