And the fact that when you turn it on you play a game and not a red ring of death or the dreaded E74 error. Now I'll patiently wait for all the Xbox guys come running in with their "its under warranty and I get it back in a week" excuse. No thanks, I'll just beat another game while your waiting.

Overheated... definitely a warning sign that the RROD is coming... (Red Ring Of Death)
Don't be fooled that PS3 doesn't have technical issues... at least Microsoft knows the RROD issue and covers it for three years...
I have both the 360 Elite, and 80gig PS3... the PS3 has already died on me (got replaced by BestBuy, lucky i bought the warranty)
call 1-800-4-MY-XBOX

I wouldnt mod it if you play online. Plus I would not let anyone but MS fix it. Call them, after the big melt down of broke 360's they extended warranties and often make the fix for free. Also they give tips that may fix it without sending it in.
PS3 is only good for Blu-Ray and God of War 3.

Wait N8, you said not to modd it? I have a brand new sealed Elite 360 thats been sitting undearneath my bed past few days.
I was going to get this modded, i really dont have time to go out and buy games/rent games so i rather download the bish or copy it from friends.
I heard the new mod with is the iXtreme or something and its OK to be online with it?

Lol that's crazy.
Just call 1800 4My xbox and send it in to get fixed. And doing the mod thing is not worth it if you play online if you don't keep updating the software so they don't find out that xbox will be blocked permontly from live. But if you don't play live go for it ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

The video chip on your motherboard overheated. What happens is that the video chip solder is a bit poor and the heat causes the chip to dislodge. Every fix out there is only temporary. It could last a few months, weeks or a year.

my buddies ps3 got 'the yellow light of death' a month ago, lost all his achievements/save games/everything, at least with an xbox red ring failure when microsoft fixes it, you keep your HD so all your shit doesn't vanish ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

That's a easy fix. Just take the x box apart( there's diagrams online) remove the cooling fan. Apply some really good arctic silver (not the cheap stuff). Put your xbox back together and your good.
