Well I just had an RROD http://www.openmediaboston.org/files/imagecache/article/files/red-ring-of-death-rrod.jpg, just like the pic. Turned the xbox off and back on and it's working now. Should I use it now and force it to break (it's still in warranty from Future Shop so I can get a new one tomorrow) or was it just a fluke? I've had a couple of game freezes in the past few week especially in Call of Duty World at War and now had one while loading Prince of Persia.

Also, can the DVD of the game I'm currently using be damaged if I'm playing with the game installed to the HDD? If it does freeze again and dies off completely.

Don't bother trying to force it to red ring. I'm pretty sure that x-boxs have something in them that log system/hardware failures.

well it died after 15 more minutes of Prince of Persia. Now it keeps giving the RROD when i turn it on. Looks like the DVD is fine.
