Well I don't know how serious this is...

But my Xbox just had a shut down. The Xbox power supply light was red and now my Xbox controller is blinking a green circle. And the Xbox is not even a month old.

Thing is, nothing else shutted down, not my tv, not my pc, not even my radio clock. And my Xbox and PS3 and the TV is all connected via a surge protection which will shut down automatically if the weather gets to bad.

Has anyone else experienced this problem, and know how bad it could be?
Hopefully I can just turn it back on in a while but im not sure if the Xbox will make it.

Thanks for any help.
 
Strangely whenever it thunders here I get kicked off xbox live. I literally mean every single thunder strike it kicks me off, I sign back in and the next one it disconnects me again. Strange.

Well I am not connected to internet with my Xbox... Simply because I don't have internet access where I live, only some crappy mobile broadband for my pc which barely works.
 
Might be some quirk of the power brick that causes the 360 to shut off?
 
I know that you are MEANT to turn off electronic appliances like TVs, Game Consoles and Computers during thunder just incase something does happen.
