Red Light?
What exactly do you mean?

If your XBox start button is turns red when you turn on the console, then I have some pretty bad news for you.

Your console is dead. Send it for repair.

Dead Ring isn't fixable.
When the rings goes red, you can use the console again, but it's broken. Most of the peoples sell's it, which is stupid, cuz the buyer gets a broken console, which isnt fixable. There comes the momment, when the console wont run any games.

Microsoft has the biggest bug in console and it's called: dead ring.

It can be repaired ... but it depends on what is the problem.

So what did Microsoft have to say about all of this? We’ll, here it is, straight from the source:

Customer satisfaction is our highest priority, and we do everything we can to take care of gamers who may be having problems with their consoles. The vast majority of Xbox 360 owners are having outstanding experiences with their systems, and we are sorry to hear that this particular individual had such an unfortunate experience. Each incident is unique and customer inquires are handled on a case-by-case basis. The overall return rate is within the CE industry average of 3-5%.

FAIL.

You can send your console to be repaired
then you wait to recieve it.
fail.

When this happens you go through this procedure:

1. send it in
2. buy and play WoW
3. get it back and some free thing

WOW - is the biggest waste of time that could ever happen to someone.

PS3 has yellow light of dead, but it's a problem only for 40 and 60GB hdd ps3's. Mine is 80, so I don't care.

Most of the ppl's here can't fix the boxes, some of them sold em, others just throw em out and get PS3.

Shooters are ment for PC, for some OLD and FANCY reasons, who seems to die in the past two years.

its called the RED RING OF DEATH not dead ring or w/e. and it is fixable on rare occasions. for example- my friend chase got the ROD and he hit the 360 like 20 times, wrapped it in a towel, let it sit for 1/2 hour, and it worked again. but that was luck so dont get ur towels out

Oh my...
Turning off the system will simply let it cool down. Wrapping it in a towel does nothing, trust me.
Either your friend lied or the XBox had simply overheated which might cause a temporal malfunction which in some cases is accompanied by another sometimes serious but still not fully developed technical issue.

The towel trick worked for me. Take all the cords out but the power supply. Wrap it in a ton of towels. Run it for 15 mins. Turn it off and unwrap it for 15 mins. And theres a chance it might work. It was running for about a month for me and I had to do that everytime to turn it on.
