I left it on for 14 hours and played halo 3 and orange box and it did fine the whole time then the static screen came up and the xbox was down again for the fifth time and after all the mods. I reheated the board with a pen torch and it seated all the soldier joints again so the problem is the soldier, it is just too low of a temperature.

@Patrick

I tried the other fix with the three pennies on the black underside chips and I have tried the girl with the lisp’s tricks and this xbox is hammered. Well hate to say it and be negative people buy buy another one and sue xbox if it breaks because if you are here and already spent thousands on this piece of shit then you know where I am coming from. I don’t know what to say but I got another xbox today and am going to use the other for experimentation under the microscope and see what the problem is. It is not hard to see that it runs hot so I know this is a problem with microsoft and them being cheap. the system was rushed onto the line to meet the halo3 needs and the damn japs cut us short again. I got the new one I will examine the old one and let you all know what I find. 11 times I fixed this one and it quit again after 13 hours and halo3 seen to be the program that overheats it most FYI. anyways I am a pro hacket and an it tech guru if anyone wants to chat its canzcustoms@hotmail.com. Good luck

To my horror, when I opened my X-Box 360, this trick had already been done. I had purchased it off eBay about 18 months ago from a shady character. Now I know why. But I went thru the steps anyways. It looked like he had not used the Arctic Silver Thermal Paste. At first, just 3 lights. Then I got the two and cooked it for 3 minutes. But it back together and still RROD. Played with it for anther hour. Still RROD. Let it run for 10 min, nothing. ON A WHIM, I UNPLUGGED THE FAN & IT CAME TO LIFE. Put it all together and I’m up & running.

My point is this. Follow the directions, read the comments, and if necessary, redo the paste. I don’t know how much life it has, but I will redo this again if it happens again.

@Mike
I used this method over a month ago and have been using my 360 more than ever. Don’t be afraid to try this what have you got to lose? Just take your time and don’t force anything.

How long do you think this will last? Because I don’t really want to keep doing this over and over again. I’m kind of skeptical about the over heating. It fixes that but wont it effect or hurt something else? Please reply.
