Hi,

I tried searching around but I coudln't find a definitive answer.

I have had my 360 for nearly a year now and as time went by I started to experience 'qwerks' in the console. Sometimes it wouldn't turn on, odd crash now and again etc. But a simple restart fixed it and I would be happy for days.
Because it happened so irregulary I was fine with it, but at the time I didn't know the 360's were plagued with problems.

About 4 months ago, a friend said he could chip my 360 to play backup games so I had it done.

I believe its a softmod because I see no physical signs of the 360 being opened, and he said if I ever wanted it back to normal he will do it.

Now the past week, I have a had a major increase of crashes on the systen, so much that it wont stay running for 5 minutues without a crash, and on a couple of occasions I had the ring of death appear when I restarted.

According to the xbox site, I have around 2 weeks left in the warranty.
If I request a repair, will they know its been modded and what will they do then? just send it back stating that the warranty is void?

Thanks
