weren't you having similar problems last time? What is the manufacturing date on your console? I'm getting my new power brick after my other one crashed (after one week). Has anyone bought the extended warranty? Why is it that MS only gave 90 days warranty and with the orginal xbox they offered one year. They probably don't want to be on the hook if all of their systems crap out!
Manufacture date is 01/25/06
WTF is an error 79!? no one not even MS has made that clear to me. all it says on their site is hardware failure. That could be anything at this point.
