Aloone_Jonez:
The older consoles are more reliable because they were simpler (less to go wrong) and made in Japan (not China) to higher quality standards.

Does any one know how the red ring of death actually works? What sort of errors does it depict?

Lead Head:
Depending on how many,. and which LEDs light up, it can indicate a number of errors. If its the three red lights, its an internal hardware failure.

Aloone_Jonez:
I've read a bit about this and it seems like the LEDs don't give the user any useful information about the hardware fault!

This is total shit. Normally error indicators on a piece of hardware are there to give the user information i.e. if the green LED lights all is well, if the red LED flashes it means the memory is bad, and if f the blue LED flashes it means the hard drive is fucked.
