my old nes works fine had it more then 20 years . ive lost 4 xboxs in 5 years because of the red rings . 3 of them were replaced for free by xbox but this last one i got from them they wont replace because they are tellin me its older then 3 years when they sent it to me 8 months ago ... wtf ????? im gonna dash this shittty box n buy a proper machine , a ps3
Ok i had same problem i fixed it take xbox apart take fan out but keep it pluged in when xbox turns on let fan spin then stop blades let your guide come up then let fans spin again tada!!!
my xbox keeps getting two red rings go away then i play with my freinds then it comes back about 10 minutes later and its annoying and i thought that it was overheated then i turned it off for a day then i got and hour of playing then did it again just like his.
how dusti was your 360 when you opened it up did you clean out the cpu and gpu of dust that could have collected over the years? mine was 2 years old when it started to overheat so i cleaned all the dust and its been fine so far
im pretty glad your paper trick didnt work. you do know that it gets REALLY REALLY hot inside the xbox? your xbox your room and your house would of burnt down if it did work. dangerous man.
When it overheats it gets two red rings but mine is the same! It does it for no reason! And some games I play for hours and others five minutes. But if I don't put in a game it will stay on for evar! I don't get it!
you need 32 washers 2 on both sides of mother borad first you need to heat the borad up where the GPU and CPU is leave it to cool then put it back together and try it then
the problem is 100 percent heat, if you havent done so already blow out all the dust out of heat sync and box, if the heat sync/ themal paste thing did not work the only other thing i can think of is try and add fan to heat sync or put 360 parts in a pc case with good cooling+heat sync fans
Overheated today i was playing mw2 and in the middel of the game it giving 2 red rings to warm i cooled it in de the snow turn it on and it helped 4 1 hour then it hapend again send it up for free
easy to fix take apart xbox get a hair dryer on hot setting and heat up chips and curcit board around the fans i got mine very hot it worked then towel trick..
I had the same thing. I did the x-clamp fix but I couldn't do the overheat procedure because when I tried to turn it back on the fans shut off and 2 red lights came on within 20 seconds. I was so tired of this shit!!!!!! I put it in the oven for 5 minutes at 350 degrees and that shit worked. There must be a better way but that worked for me.
I was just wondering if you ever figured out this problem since i had the same issue? Had 3 red rings then took it apart . Then got 2 red rings and now I have 3 red rings again....
i tried doing a few things to my 360 but now im back to the 3 red rings so im going try a bunch of diff things and post a new vid in a couple of weeks
you know what dude, i also encountered this problem with my xbox...worked through different methods and i come with with a soloution for you....GET $299 AND BUY A NEW ONE!!!!! ot works great it fixed my problem it should work for you too:D
take it apart till it just the bot thing take the drive out and the white and stick it in the freezer for like a have an hour o and make sure when u start it up again make u have a game in there or else it will shut off o and make sure your xbox does the 2 ring thing before u put it in the freezer : ]
alright bro. i dont have the answer but ive been working on it for hours. what i tried doing was opening up the xbox and clean out all of the dust on it. that didnt work for me. so i what i also tried doing is taking ispropyl alcohol and wiping the gpu and cpu clean and i put more thermal grease on. that didnt work either. but what i havent tried yet is laying the xbox fans over the cpu to keep it cool while the heat bonds with gpu. hope this helps. cheers =]
let me know if you still need this problem fixed i will fix it for a small price

You need more pressure on the heat sinks. Use 2-3 sheets of cardboard.
