I had to call Microsoft, give them all this info, and surprisingly they actually sent me a new one in the mail.
Good times… and also sad times.

I remember I got this, I jokingly recorded myself smacking the 360 off my desk thinking it was useless. Somehow started working and didn’t have issues for years until I got an Xbox one hahaha

Idk how this wasn’t the highest selling console ever. I think my family went through 3 or 4 before I found a guy on Craigslist that fixed them in skillets in his shed

This happened to me a long ago as well. Taught myself how to clean and install new thermal paste to fix it. Which I think played a part in giving me confidence to start building PCs.

Then you wrap it in a towel upside down and see how long it last until the next time.
