About 10 minutes ago I was in the middle of downloading a demo when my 360 switched itself off.

Now when I power it up it locks up when the 'x globe' spins away from the screen on start up.

I have had it for just one week :rolleyes:

Heat issue maybe? Leave it off for about 30mins or so and try again.

Yeah it does seem like that, I left it for 10 minutes and tried but it's still the same. I'll give it half an hour.

No red lights. Just tried it again and still the same thing. I just phoned the place I got it from, they will swap it over.

Still a pain though, I had loads of demos on the HD :mad:

Keep the HDD, tell them it's all your saved games on it, I still don't know why MS or the shops insist on returning the HDD.

Glad to hear no hassle though.

Tried booting it without the HDD as soon as it did it, still didn't make any difference.

I took it back and they swapped it no problem, they wouldn't let me keep the HDD though. I did ask, and said that I had demos, save games etc. but they insisted they weren't allowed to :rolleyes:

Lucky I hadn't got that far in the games.
