If you've bought a "modified" 360 the latest dashboard update will BRICK your console.

Bricked means it will be totally unusable, even offline - doorstopped/bookended etc.

Just hearing this now via my circles, and they are a very reliable source for this sort of information.

i don't own one, so can't confirm, and tbh would be pissed off if i had to confirm it. Consider this a warning.

Looks like it *may* only affect newer consoles:

^Rxxxxx: i was quite worried when mine went into power save mode during update and made screeen go blank )

pxxxxx: but ###### knows tbh

Pxxxxx: that's a bit

Looks like this is affecting some Non-modded 360s also.

it's a bug in the dashboard and does not 'brick' your xbox. 360 It is very straightforward to fix.
