I recently purchased an Xbox 360 and it began to work slower and slower until it finally stopped working, later that week i was talking to my friend about and he said that 1 in 10 do this, why?! If Microsoft knows about this problem then why don't they fix it? Then my friend said they would send me a new one if I just shipped them my old one, I then called the support line and they said I needed to send my Xbox in the box it came in. (i didn't have it because i didn't know about this problem.) I asked her if they could ship me a box so that i could send them my Xbox to them to have it replaced, they shipped me one but it took about 2 weeks to get to my house. When i shipped it to them I was hoping they would send back a new one, ready to play, but they sent my old one back with a "Void Warranty" note stuck to the side of it

My question is, why don't they just fix this problem, it would make their customers more appreciative of Microsoft, please comment on this with any experiences you have had with this problem. Thank you and have a good day

The earlier generations of xbox 360s tend to have the most problems. Where did you buy yours from?
There's a possibility that your 360 is an earlier generation console.
Also, here's a few questions:
+Has your xbox fallen since you bought it?
+Have you moved it around a lot or traveled with it?
+Have you been poking around inside of it, or tried to fix it yourself? (Cause microsoft obviously thought you tampered with it, and voided your warranty)
Also, Jopack 134 The red ring of death is completely gone in new consoles. That is a problem only existing in the older generations.
So, any new console you buy (all new generations come with a HDMI port, a good way to tell the generation of the console) will not have this problem.
I've had my xbox for two years now, and I havent had any problems. :/
