the 3 red lights indicates a problem with your power supply, either the cord or internally, the 4 rings is when it's completely shot...fyi...

Three red rings with an amber light on your power brick is power supply. three red rings with a green light on your power brick is the fatal error.
4 red rings is a loose A/V cable.
Neverscope, do not put an FYI in your post if your info is not accurate please.

I think it's the massive run on sentence that makes the caps seem worse here.
hahaha yeah, i thought the same thing after posting.
there's been maybe 3 or 4 times over the past year where the power will go out for a split second and my 360 displays 3 red rings. freaks me out everytime.
