First i got the 3 red rings so i took my 360 apart and put a heat compound on the chips under the heat sinks and replaced the the x-clamps with screws and washers. That gave me 2 red rings. i then put the x-clamps back on the wrong way and it gave my 3 red rings. i put them on the correct way and it gave me 2 red rings. i then figured out that is because your heat sinks are not tight enough on your mother board. so i folded 7 pieces of paper in to a small rectangle and put it on top of my heat sink. when i put the 360 back together the paper was pushing the heat sink down onto the mother board giving it 3 red rings. i then over heated it and now it will turn on for about 30 seconds before changing to 2 red lights. HELP!!!
