Send it back, give them some soppy bullshit story bout how it will ruin your Christmas and you will probably get a free random game along with a fixed 360.

Just send it back, its all you can do without screwing it up even more and losing the warranty all together. They will pretend to try and fix it but in the end will probably just send you a brand new one.

Nobody is too old for sobbing if you can score a free game with it and fast reparations of that Xbox. (Or whatever the procedure is)

3 year warranty on ALL xbox 360's isn't cheap, go get it fixed no problem and try to make sure they don't send you a new HD cause you'll want all your saves, unless your a loser with a memory card...

No, it's not cheap. It's just foreshadowing the inevitable.

Happened to my friends xbox yesterday...you have the option of sending it back, and getting it repaired or getting a brand new one, either way...
1/3 failure rate....mircosoft just gave you a console, that will sooner or later die..

Because when you see it, you turn 360 degrees and walk away.

There is one thing you can do.
It's a temporary fix.
Take any discs out of the console.
Wrap your 360 in towels completely.
Turn on the console and leave running for 20 minutes.
This causes the console to overheat, thus remelting the soldering on the hardware and reconnecting it, which is the opposite of what happened before.
I tried this and it worked for a bit, then I got the rings again.
Your best bet is to just send it in and hope that with the crazy Christmas traffic, you'll get it back in a decent amount of time.
I sent mine in beginning of August and got it back sometime around the beginning of September, so yeah.

Did you forget to plug in the cable to your TV?
I keep doing that, and shitting bricks when I see the red.

you dont send the hard drive back. you take it off and send just the console on its own.

nope , if u send it back in and u dont have warranty on it you gotta pay to get it fixed. well they also wont fix my friends xbox 360 cuz he didnt purchase warrenty. then they yelled at em and they said they will do it if ther willing to pay. so itz just really bad luck
