Means simply that its *bleep*ed take it back to the shop with a recipt and they should ither 1: swap it for a diff one or 2: Fix your old one but this is an unfixable problem

May be you played COD all morning then stick Vegas in right after it without it being cooled and you dont have a cooler.

Most third-party brand coolers make the situation worse and you don't really need one. Also, placing it in a good position is just common sense TBH.

Not to crush your spirits, but the overheating is more than likely a sign that the 3RLOD is coming to your console soon. Very rarely, if ever, will a game make your console not function properly. I have repaired over 20 360's from the 3RLOD, so I know what I am saying (its in my career field).

The reason this came to my attention was because I had a console that had those symptoms before. It powered on fine, but once a game was put in it would overheat in minutes. Then it went to 3RLOD a couple weeks later, and then I repaired it as usual, now its been working for almost a year flawlessly.

kimmace, u dont know what your talking about, if u read his thread at all he said that he plays cod4 just fine, but thats all u can expect from some1 who plays runscape, but id agree with the strain of new tech on the xbox hardware, i guess theres a reason that on the pc cod4 runs smoothly and on almost any system thats not totally like the ultimate gaming machine the fps goes out the window in a fire fight
