If You Purchased a xbox 360 from Germany

Hi,

If anyone got a 360 from Germany (can't find my original post), you would have got a 2 pin power cord.

A way round cutting the cord or getting an UK adapter........ you simply call xbox warranty people (number in back of book) and say the power cord is faulty and at the same time register your xbox!

Say you have tried other plug sockets and that you borrowed a cable from a mate and your console then powered up!

I did this on Tuesday and have a 3 pin power cord today!

    I would suggest getting a official power cord, as if your 360 develops a fault and you need to send it to MS they might get picky about it?

    You might as well get a proper cable when it doesn't cost you anything.... you speak to someone in the US but the call is even FREE
