Fall Update in RROD Shocker!
So I’m sitting there one all of a sudden pops up this console update notice. Now, I’m not expecting any other updates to swing my way any time soon, so naturally I know what one it is. The console restarts itself, and to my horror I get a series of crazy, 8-bit colours. Here I am caking my draws thinking my XBOX has finally resigned to fate and handed itself over to tech heaven, but I go into Console Settings > Display > and mess around with the PAL settings and suddenly I’m back in my comfortable next-gen world, encompassed in all the colours of the rainbow (well, a variety of greys and yellows, as my theme dictates).
Anyone else get scared witless like this?

Lou, (nice new look site btw) this is how my first xbox started on the road to ruin. Did the picture go like a checkerboard? Sorry to hear it duders, you and your beloved box will be in my prayers tonight!
