Fixing Chromehounds Ring of Death in Four Easy Steps

Three LightsWe earlier featured an article about the Chromehounds Ring of Death. No, it isn’t a new game for the Xbox 360. Apparently, some people playing Chromehounds have had a problem with the game because it frequently freezes, and not only that, after switching the machine off then on, three red lights in the ring of power could be seen, which allegedly disables the poor Xbox 360 user to play any other game.

If that’s your problem then we might have a solution. One of our avid readers, Lupin, informed us that he has been reading about Chromehounds issues like these, and that the ‘ring of death’ is “actually a common problem when a game freezes then on reboot gives a 3 ring of red error.” The guy works at GameStop and had fixed three 360s with the same error. He gamely shared to all of us the steps on how this could be solved in four easy steps:

  1. Unplug everything from 360.
  2. Plug in just the PSU/Power to the 360 not AV/HD AV cables and turn on the 360
  3. It should now post a 4 Red Light error wich means no AV cable leave that on for like idk a few seconds.
  4. Hook back up just the AV Cables not the HD or MU

That ought to do the trick. According to Lupin, if it doesn’t work, “leave the 360 off completely unplugged overnight. Then try the above steps again. Hope this works.” Thanks for that Lupin! Now, tell us if Lupin’s steps worked or not through your comments.
