About XBox Error Codes
XBox Error codes are a source of concern for many XBox owners. The fact is that they give some people nightmares!
At the root of these nightmares is the infamous red rings of death, the error code that kindly informs you that your XBox has been turned into a brick. What this means is that the machine no longer works and needs to be sent off for repairs before you can ever use it again.
This is quite a big deal when you realise that you are going to be waiting for weeks to get it back repaired and sometimes it is shipped back with a new problem. To make things worse, you are going to have to pay $140+ unless you have a valid warranty.
This is why lots of users have tried to fix these xbox error codes themselves. They have come up with some really strange repairs, like wrapping the XBox up in towels and forcing it to overheat. This is dangerous, and even if it works the first time, it will not last (because it has not fixed what is wrong with the console.)
Luckily, some experts have written a guide to repairing these error codes yourself, that is guaranteed to work.
