Okay, here's the deal. The info provided in the link below I can't promise will work because my 360 is still under warranty. However, if it wasn't, I'm give it a try. Just understand THIS WILL VOID A WARRANTY IF YOU TRY IT AND FAIL! I hope this will save someone $140.00 of hard earned money. Good luck and try at your own risk.

If the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Shaun White Snowboarding are the open-world side of the sport, the PSP version would be its little brother: scaled down with a redirected focus and a more traditional setup. The hunting, searching and exploring of the other versions is gone. In its place are a series of events – taking place over five mountains and dispersed one at a time via menu screens – that are much closer to a typical snowboarding game.

I've done all I know to do and still havd the RROD. I have it in it's coffin..........er I mean box to ship it off to the hospital to get better. I still thank God for the spare but i feel kinda naked, (not a sight to behold, trust me), with just the one. The thing that scares me is if it happens again I'll do something drastic and go PS3. Not that Sony is bad, I just don't want to buy all my games over and downsize in picture quality. We have the extended warranty on both but I've heard thats even a nightmare. Do I buy a refirb as a third spare or just take my chances?

  I'd been saving change for awhile and the other day  I bought a 360E. The wife wasn't too happy that I'd spent 500.00 without talking to her first. she was playing FO3 tonight when the RROD hit our main 360. Now she's not mad but glad we have a spare. Sure I got used to having a 360 of my own but the old one is still covered and I'm a hero one again, at least untill she finds out about other things I've purchased. the rev will be saying his prayers for the speedy recovery of the 360 and ask all to join in as well if you please.
