I got the 3 out of 4 red dashson my XBox 360. I guess its the “ring of death” even though its not a complete circle. The 12 o’ clock to 3 o’ clock green light. So, I took the XBox 360 apart and nothing visual (as I thought) Gonna put it together, and tomorrow do the heat gun fix. Awsome quality!:banghead:

I also found a new method for fixing this “ring of death”…

I dont think I’ll be trying that one though.

my launch console is still going strong (knock on wood). Feels wierd to have a good running 360, with all the complaints I hear.

Sorry to hear about yours. I’d HAVE to get a new one though if something happened to mine. mabey the elite. Match the ps3…

lol temp fix, it seems like its fixable if it worked then stopped, try the heat gun thing, and change out the x clamp on the heat sink with some nuts and bolts, puts even pressure on the mb so it doesnt loose its solder connects when it gets hot.
