The Original Poster should of did that quick temp fix then traded it in to gamesto when they were offering a fairly good trade in price for the new version of the 360. The old ones are basically disposable now anyways I picked up a spare arcade version for the other room at Target for $150 plus you received a $50 gift card for free so it was only $99.

 

Can't trade in rrod systems anymore we stopped taking em in a couple months back

 

a few friends of mine got away with doing the temp fix and got away with it on the trade in for the new version. I am excited about that kinexts (sp?) thingie coming out. you gonna get that?

 

The only problem with the new 360s is there is no firmware for the optical drives so can't play burnt games.

 

That is true! It sure does look sharp though. Great video you made I am going to send it to few xbox 360 fan boys I know lol...

 

that was awesome...im a ps3 guy so i'm a little biased

 

i got my son a 360 for xmas last year, the limited edition call of duty one....he played it for about a month then said he didn't like it so I sold it on ebay for $400...

 

LOL That wouldnt have saved this thing. It started last year and the XClamp fixed it. Then I mounted a 120mm fan over the heatsink. Then I had to reflow the mobo for the first time and that lasted for about 9 months. Then a couple of weeks ago it went out. So reflowed the mobo again and lasted about a week. Reflowed it two more times but it would either give the loose ram error or triple ring every time it was turned on. Had to put it out of its misery.

 

Haha, as a Playstation 3 owner, nothing makes me more happy than seeing this video. My favorite part is having to run over it more than once, just to make sure it was dead. Good post.
