well the warranty went up on my xbox 360 so i decided to soft mod it and i it was done right and i had it fixed so that the red ring of death was less likely to happen got home an hour later of getting that done and in the middle of playing a game it shuts off i turn it back on and 3 flashing red rings and well i let it alone for 15 minutes it turns back on like normal and does it again after 15 minutes of playing a game whats wrong?
What's wrong is you've got the RRoD! You may have had a fix done for it (i.e. X-Clamp Fix), but they aren't guaranteed to work forever. We did an X-Clamp for a buddy, and his did the same thing! Best bet now is to either try and send it back to M$, or to buy a new system!
from reading your post it sounds like you had someone else do this for you. and it was done prior to a red ring to prevent it?? apparently whatever they did actually caused the red ring not prevented it!
find out exactly what they did. as in did they do xclamp and if so did they use thermal paste and clean the old stuff off completely before adding new paste.
bhetrick..... is that your video on youtube? your griddle looks familiar (from the video).
do you put thermocouples on the board? just out of curiousity does your hot nozzles have a feedback thermocouple in it? just curious cuz I used to have a similar setup a couples years back.
I have the gotten the rrod on an old system and need it reflowed. bhetrick do you do reflows for memebers on here? If so how much would you charge? Thanks
