They've got me running around in circles now, the email linking to the shipping label sent me to an error message saying: "Error: Unable to retrieve the UPS Label information. Please check the retrieval link. ( Error Code: 0 )"
I had to send microsoft an email complaining. 😕

Lets hope they sort that out.

I have an interesting dilema now. Before packing the unit to ship, I started it up and it works fine. Been playing Halo 3 all morning. I know the RROD will return. My problem is that I bought that unit in my home country where the local techies hack into it and load illegal copies of the games. Will MS find that out and not fix the RROD? Maybe Im better off keeping the only-work-sometimes unit rather than shipping it off. Any advice?

OK .. hacking, illegal copies of DVDs CDs, software is the norm in 3W countries.

Usually with the 360, all things that use memory, such as illegal copies of games, would be on the harddrive...unless they somehow took apart the xbox and fiddled around with the hardware itself. If so, it wouldn't be much of a problem, when you send it off for repair you are only meant to send off the xbox itself, not the harddrive, wires and controllers, they are detachable.
