Based on your time of purchase, there was a very high surplus of Zephyr Elites floating around. Check your power supply - if it DOESN'T say 175w output, then you DON'T have a Falcon. Your manufacturing date does not guarentee that it was a Falcon board unfortunately - only the power supply can confirm this.
I just checked, its definately a 203w power supply.

So my question then is what does MS do to fix my console? Do they replace the chips with lower output ones, ie these Zephyrs? or do they just put the same old parts in so failure again is just a few months away?

I personally hope they just send me a whole new XBox with a new power supply. That would rock.
