try using new component cable. Or removing the hard drive and turn the 360 on.

Only a matter of time before you get the 3ROL error. Get ready to deal with the new Microsoft 3 year Warrenty program.

Whatever you do... DO NOT SEND IT TO MICROSOFT! I have sent in 10 consoles already... I am now in contact with my State Attorney General and the Better Business Burro! I am going to get my problem resolved once in for all!

I would send it to this guy http://cgi.ebay.com/Broken-Xbox-360-Repa...QcmdZViewItem(I was considering sending mine to him but then MS changed their warranty policy)plus he has great feedbach,has his own warranty,and will refund youre money if he cant fix it:D If you dont want to send it to him search on ebay for xbox 360 repair service

As long as you have the sticker M$ shouldnt put a fuss up about the firmware! Just remember I have sent 10 consoles to Microsoft and none have been 'fully' functional if functional at all...
