Got a weird problem happen with the red ring...

[ighosty]

My 360 is giving me the red ring of death almost everytime I turn on the console. This is my second console, the first had to be swapped for a new one after the red ring killed it. The ring I am getting is due to a hardware failer, but the weird thing about it is that when I turn the console off and back on it will work everytime. Should I get it checked out or just keep turning it off and back on, since that seems to do the job.

My first Xbox did this and then eventually died.

It is warning you of imminent death. If you are still under warranty use it while you can.

I'm hopin it won't die out on me. I am still under warranty, so if the box craps out anytime I will just send it back to MS. Any other suggestions?

If you're well within the warranty, ride it out until it dies. If the warranty's ending soon, send it in now.

There really aren't any other suggestions to make - either live with it or send it in for repairs/replacement if it is under warranty.
