RUH ROH!
by SBF Sun Jul 03, 2011 11:14 pm
My 360 decided tonight it would be cute and make the screen go fuzzy. after I turned it off and on a couple times, my TV decided to tell me "Mode Not Supported". By doing some research it looks as if the POS is overheating and is probably going to take a shit soon.

Don't do the blanket wrap unless you want it to work for a bit and then be ruined for good. Repairing the rrod isn't that tough and there are lots of tutorials online. I did mine over a year ago and it hasn't had any problems since.

Getting the case open is the only thing that's a pain about it. Once inside its just a matter of replacing the cheapo Microsoft epoxy fixing the gpu to the motherboard with high quality stuff and replacing the x clamps with nylon washers. After that its pretty much rrod proof.

I've been debating getting a slim. But that probably won't happen until Christmas.

I thought about getting a Kinect, very briefly. I know it would probably end up sitting in the corner with 6 inches of dust on it.

Once I heard about Forza 4 head tracking, I knew I would be buying one eventually.

If they don't fix the fucking right stick I'll be getting a Kinect as well for FM4.
It needs to be for gear changes like in FM2.

Wrap it in a blanket. Re-dry that circuitry.
