jettadeluxe Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 [ QUOTE ] hmm il probably phone them tomorrow otherwise il be looking at a core to replace it not a happy bunny [/quote They don't make a 'core' anymore, its been replaced with the 'arcade', which has the new cooling technology to cure the overheating problem, and also has an HDMI port, which I beleive the 'core' didn't have?

Big_Al Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 No new 360 for me but very pleased with the repair time New motherboard and DVD drive, working at the moment but the test will be at the weekend when i let my son loose on it he's got a couple of weeks gaming to catch up on I did have a laugh when I got in, I shouted "where's the love of my life" my wife replied "I'm in the kitchen" and she got the response for me "Not you, the xbox" Then i played 'dodge the saucepan' for the next few minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
