Advice Please Help

Hello, just need some advice. I am on my second 360 now and have recently begun playing GOW. I am approx 1/3 of the way thru the game and it has started freezing. When I go to reboot my 360 it takes ages and then shows 3 red lights. I then wait and reboot again which it does fine. I have played Cod 3, Fifa 07, Pes6 anf THP8 (altho it did freeze once) which no issues. Do you think it could be a dodgy copy of gears or should I just not risk it and swap my console unit at my local Game store (who have agreed I can do that and did it once before for me).......what are peeps thoughts? Help!!

Swop the console 3 reds is never good. Mine is away for repairs for the 3 reds You can get an instanly new one without the aprox 3 week repair time so I should swop it.

sounds like over heating could be an issue

think theres a website around that allows you to find out whats wrong and why your getting the 3 lights.

The site says in short: check your if cabels are put good in if this doenst work call support.

Support says: Hardware problems Send it over here for repairs.
