My Broken Xbox 360

Well I will share some information with you here that will prevent these complications. If you already have any of these faults with your machine then I will tell you exactly how to fix them yourself without the need of sending the Xbox back to Microsoft saving you time and money.
There are many common faults reported some of which are listed here:
Graphics distortion
Game freezing
Two red light fault
Three red lights fault (aka ring of death)
These faults are all caused by the same thing, overheating! Yes that’s all it is, the machines overheat and damage internal hardware. First lets talk about prevention. After all prevention is the best cure. If you keep your console in a cabinet when playing or any enclosed space your asking for trouble! These machines generate a lot of heat and unless well ventilated they WILL overheat. So its very simple keep the machine in a well ventilated area when playing. Air conditioned rooms are ideal but failing that a desk fan will do a great job at cooling system.
