Ok make sure it is in an open enough space, so it can get air through all the holes in the system. Also make sure the big power brick is sitting on the ground properly and not hanging, or in a big pile of cords. Also it helps if you install your games, to your hard drive. That cuts down on your system having to heat up and run all of its parts to play a game, because it reads the game from the hard drive. I hope I helped, and if you have any other questions post again.

I already did all those things, I was talking to one of my friends and he said that this is what happens leading up to the red rings of death.
Damn, that was the only things I could think to tell you, and you've done them all. Well I've had my 360 since the day it came out, and I've had to send mine back once. And your friend is right, what you are experiencing does usually happen when you get rrod. But none of those things happened to me, it just stopped working the day after gta 4 came out, and it was probably old age. But if you have a new one and you get the rrod, hopefully you can call microshaft, and they will replace it, you might can even get a life time warrenty for the 3 red rings.

Yea man that's what I would do. They will give you an extended warrenty and a free month of live, if you play live, which I don't. What model 360 do you have?
