Oh man, realy? That sucks. It hasn't happened to me and hopefully never will. I thought it happened to me once but the power cable was just lose in the back, I advise checking the cables in the back if you haven't already, it nearly fooled me. If it is the real thing though and you have the warranty, just send it in and they'll replace it or refund your money. I'm pretty sure if they replace it, you get to keep your hard-drive so you won't lose any of your memory.

Well, when it started to do it, I yanked the power cord out...and waited about 10 minutes for it to cool down...then replugged it up and it's working fine. Talk about heart-attack...especially since I'm getting Rock Band & Mass Effect tomorrow...

Yep, seems like the cord was lose like what happened to me or maybe it just overheated. I'd keep an eye on it though, just in case. I can only imagine what it was like, the day before the best game ever is released, your 360 up and dies. My heart would've stopped too lol. I can't wait for Mass Effect. Only another few days(I'll probally be getting it Wenesday because we have snail mail up here). You know you really want a game when you start dreaming about it at night lol.

I'm 100% sure the cord wasn't loose because I've never touched it or moved it. Ever since I've got it, it's stayed in that one spot. I'm pretty sure it over heated. I went and bought a mini-fan and put it blowing on it. And just think....when it did this...I had an intercooler on it as well... |

Also, if you get the problem with the 360, I'd recommend checking out some youtube videos. Most of them solve this issue by letting it overheat for a while, then let it cool, which usually solves the problem.

Well...it's official now...my 360 is completely dead. So...this really really sucks. I just bought Mass Effect & Assassin's Creed...and just received Rock Band as an early Christmas present..and now I can't play any of them...talk about suckage...

So, have you:
1) tried letting it cool down?
2) tried overheating it under a blanket for a while, then letting it cool down?
3) tried cursing and praying it to no avail?
