mr d stroy Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 cant seem to get my xbox to stop overheating; i tried everything from using artic silver 5, to using my own fan on it. Shit blows, i know someone knows how to fix it. Any ideas? <3
Ya i am Good Posted July 8, 2010 Posted July 8, 2010 god i love waking up in the morning going downstairs and having my PS3 work every time i turn it on :>
mr d stroy Posted July 9, 2010 Author Posted July 9, 2010 yeah i heard they own, too bad they don't got the best fps ;)
Shut Up Kid Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 Did you do towel trick? also are you getting the 3 red rings or not. i can help for further issues.
mr d stroy Posted July 9, 2010 Author Posted July 9, 2010 Did you do towel trick? also are you getting the 3 red rings or not. i can help for further issues. yeah 3 red rings. i can play it like 30 minutes before it overheats, but that's useless lol
Shut Up Kid Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 ah i had the same problem, i know a site that helped me with, will edit with link do you get an error code with chinese/japenese words on it?
mr d stroy Posted July 9, 2010 Author Posted July 9, 2010 ah i had the same problem, i know a site that helped me with, will edit with link do you get an error code with chinese/japenese words on it? idk where would it be? it just red rings with 2 rings which means it overheating to my knowledge. waiting for the link, thanks.
watch me tb Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 if you power supply is close to it, move it. if you know how to take the case off, do that. and just run it without the case. also, dont do the towel trick... thats terrible. it over heats it, and can cause major damage to the motherboard.

Blitz Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 No idea. Mine did the same, i got annoyed, so i sent it away. One week to get back. + 1 free month of Xbl. ^_^
mr d stroy Posted July 9, 2010 Author Posted July 9, 2010 You get it d stroy? shit i keep trying but the controller wont sync up with the xbox, so i cant get the code :unsure2: Think i might try to screw the heat sinks in so i know there gonna transfer heat quickly
Shut Up Kid Posted July 9, 2010 Posted July 9, 2010 when you try to get the code hold down the sync button on the xbox itself then the press the open disk tray button, do that 4 times and you'll get the code. and if its problem with the heat sinks i can ask my friend how to fix that, he had that problem himself.

It's been on for 3hours now and no red ring, hope its the perm fix :wow: wheres the sync button on the xbox btw lol(my faceplate,top, and everything is off atm)
