Forum:Red Ring of Death

Well, it finally happened... My Xbox 360 finally died on me, I have recieved the infamous Red Ring of Death. The only reason I am posting this here is that I am curious if this event coincided with obtaining Star Paladin Cross. In all of my playthroughs (5 or so) I have never used Cross as a follower before. I decided to go ahead and pick her up this time, and not 5 minutes after that, the game started malfunctioning. The screen turned red with lots of snow/static, kind of looked like the opening scene of The Matrix, but with the binary in red... Has this happened to anyone else before? Also, does anyone know if I will have to pay for the DLC again on my new system? Thanks in advance. Cheers! 128.158.1.164 19:43, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

Well thats good to know that SPC and the crash are not related. Does anyone know about if I can recover my DLC at no additional cost, or am I going to have to either pay again, or buy the Game of the Year edition? Thanks in advance. 128.158.1.162 20:11, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

Since you have them on your Xbox, once you pay for them and dowload them to your hard drive, all you have to do is reattach your hard drive to the new Xbox. If you get a new Xbox, all you have to do is go back to Xbox Marketplace and redownload them at no charge to you since you already paid for them under your gammertag.---Drop-Zone- 22:22, September 14, 2009 (UTC)

I don't think a game's content should have anything to do with the RRoD, seeing as it's something to do with power block or something.

P.S. You're going to regret S.P.C. Pick Charon instead. Pararaptor 08:54, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

Well thats good to know about the DLC. Now, does anyone know how to disconnect/reconnect the hard drive? A link or something? And thanks for the tip about SPC, I usually dont use followers, but I decided to give it a whirl this time around. Cheers and thanks to all for the responses! 128.158.1.166 11:54, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

Where your HD sits on the 360, there should be a small button connected to the HD. Push it in and pull up and back. That should take it out. To put it back in, reverse the steps.---Drop-Zone- 15:17, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
