Here is a trick on how to stop the "red ring of death".




Seems to work, unlike his Robocop gun, hehe (I want one though).

now i have heard about this trick and i was talking to a guy in work and apperntly the reason the Xbox 360 is so prone to the Red Ring of Death is where these consoles are bulit in Malaysia, Malaysia is very rich in lead and they use too much lead and skimp on the tin when using soldering the components to the board and when these things get hot internally the lead in the solder softens and the components "lift off" the board causing the RRoD. what this guy is doing is get the 360 really hot (hence the towels) so the solder re-softens (even softer in fact) and the components reattach themselves to to boards. It wont matter if what the "New" 360 Elite or otherwise will have in them, unless they start using better quality solder (I.E with a high amount of tin and less lead) the RRoD will stay with us

I thought the towel had to be wet and you had to wrap it around your head to block the signal, no wait that was something else......
