Answer:
Well, if u don't wanna send it to microsoft, u can fix it by urself. It's very easy! 2 months ago, I got the same problem as u, but my warranty has expired. So I found a repair guidebook. Finally I only used 40 minutes and fixed the problem. I think it will also help u! Good luck!

Plus don't open your xbox if you have warranty because it will be void. You have a 3 year manufacturers warranty so call xbox up and they will fix it for you. Hope this helps fellow gamer.
