Fixed Xbox

4:38 pm Games

After a month without playing any xbox 360, I thought I’d fire it up to get into Halo 3. After about 5 mins the whole thing just froze. On the reboot, it started freezing on the dashboard before the game even started up. Not a massive suprise as it’s a release day xbox and they all have a design fault. Last thing to try was to unplug everything, leave it all overnight and see what happened - Unsuprisingly it was the same.

Back to Microsoft then for a replacement? Well perhaps there is one more trick to try first. Crazy though it sounds someone suggested unplugging everything bar the power lead and leaving it on for 30 mins wrapped up in a couple of towels.

Result - One working Xbox 360 and an afternoons Guitar Hero 3 :D
