Wrap the 360 up in a couple of towels so the air vents are covered, turn it on and leave it for 15-20 minutes, unwrap it and let it cool for a few minutes and when you turn it on, it should work.
HOLD ON!
Make sure you take out the A/V cables, and your HDD or you'll take a chance of ruining those. The only thing that should be plugged in is the power plug. That's it!
I let mine cool for about 2 hours.

Looks like microsoft is sending me out a package for my XBOX 360. I also acted like a racist *** on the phone and they are sending me one month free of XBOX LIVE! All I said was, "Can you get me on the line with someone who isn't speaking arabic?"
I felt bad, but I read on wikipedia about compensation, so I thought I'd make myself sound pissed off. It works!
If it breaks down again, I might get a new controller too!

Hate to burst your bubble, but they send everyone a free month of Xbox Live when you have to send in your console for repairs.
Congrats on sounding like a racist though... even though it didn't get you anywhere further than if you said absolutely nothing.
That sucks. I wonder how many people like me call that very same guy and treat him like crap in the hopes of getting free stuff. It probably kills him... emotionally.

Don't worry. Those people go through rigorous training to become MS support. Microsoft completely demolishes their feelings and their ability to think. They feel no pain. They get their usual support responses stamped into their brain.
Now whenever their loved ones ask what is wrong, they say "Unplug everything and plug it back in".

Haha. I hate tech support, from any company. They sound like ****ing robots because they read from a script.

Is my 360 dying? It sounds like it is. The mechanism is making a fair bit of noise recently. If it is on its last legs, and I send it off and they try it out and it loads games that aren't army of two, fight night and Crackdown perfectly, will I get billed? Also if I do send it off, how long is the process? ie will I have to buy GTA on PS3? :)
Midnight I am un the U.S. so i dont know the time it will take you. My 360 was doing the same things as yours. It was just getting worse by the day. Eventually a game froze i believe it was Oblivion and when I went to restart RROD. I used the "towel" trick and it worked for a few days anyway. When i sent my 360 in to Texas it didnt actually have a RROD. Because of the towel trick. I wasnt charged anything because I told the support people over the phone it was a RROD. At the time i wasnt lying. I doubt Microsoft even checks the problem of your 360. Most likly they will just send you a refurb. It took me about 3 weeks. According to UPS's website they had my 360 for one day before sending me a refurb. All my wait time was just because of shipping. So if you pay for better shipping it will be quicker. Just call MS support and tell them its RROD. Or just wait until it is because its going to happen. Peace
Thanks for the advice. It seems to be behaving itself now, but I have no doubt it'll go **** up sooner or later. When it does I'll follow your advice. Cheers.
I haven't had any problems with my Elite which I bought the day it came out *Touch wood*. I'm starting to get paranoid that it'll break the day before GTA4 comes out, that would be soul destroying.
