If it is because your hdd was out, or your plugs weren't all the way in, no you are good to go but if thats isn't the case, chances are it will come again.

yeah, it'll probably come back. when i got the rings if i left it for an hour or two and then came back it would work for any where between 20 minutes and an hour and then give me the rings again.

Theres nothing you can really do about it man, M$ will repair it for you (unless its covered by a warranty at the store you bought it from and if thats the case they'll replace it for you). Being impatient with the whole process isn't going to make things any easier on you or the person you speak to in regards to your xbox. We've all had problems with the RRoD, I'm on my 4th Xbox at the moment (and has lasted for ages touch wood), why should you get special consideration just because you don't want to wait? And the newer models are much better than the older ones, the failure rate for the new ones is around 5% and the older models were around a speculated 30%. Stick with the xbox, in my opinion its the better of the 3 current consoles in "all-roundedness".

PC Gaming still owns though :P
