go to www.xbox.com and at the home page it says "important safety notice power cord replacement" click there and u have to give them some info on ur xbox like the serial number and manufacturing date and some other stuff. fill it all out and they send u a replacement for free. you have to have a xbox from 2001 or 2002 i think but if its a newer one i would still try it. the old kinds used to catch on fire or sumthin liek that. they send u a new cord in like 5 days. its all free so try it.

Mine was made 01-01-2003 and it said it has been determined that mine needs a new power cord so I ordered a replacement.

20 hours isn't anything. the only time you get this error is usually when you get dust on the lens. its not a big deal though you can just buy one of those CD's with the brushes and it cleans it and usually it works.
