I went to turn on my xbox like 10 mins ago and the PSU was blinking Orange and my xbox 360 wouldnt turn on. Ive looked online for an explaination, only thing i've come across was the PSU is dead? Is this true? and is it covered under warranty?

I may be wrong, but I think it would only be covered under the 1 year warranty, and only the RROD is covered under the 3 year warranty. So if you have had your 360 for less than a year I think your ok.
