You guys want a solution? Try taking care of your stuff. I've had mine since it came out and it still works just fine.
No. You just got lucky. 360 is completely flawed, and that isnt the consumer's fault.

Today a young man on acid realized that we are merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. That we are one conciousness experiencing its self subjectively. Life is but a dream and we are the imagination of ourselves.
Here's Tom with the weather...


It's not a "War On Drugs", it's a war on personal freedom.

Same thing happened to me today (red ring o' death)
It started last week though when playing rumble shotguns on desolation.
I was spinning around for a triple-kill when suddenly, the screen froze up, wih multi-colored bands striping the screen vertically.
There was also a high pitch electronic whine coming through my headphones.
I rebooted, started matchmaking again and the screen froze once more during a game on Ivory Tower.
Decided to clean my disc (just in case) and it didn't happen again until now.

So I'm sitting here this morning trying to clean the disc again when the 360 dashboard freezes up the same way.
"uh-oh, guess it wasn't the game disc"
After rebooting a few times I got the feared red flash of led's number 1,3, and 4.
I've heard of all the "home-remedies" used to alleviate but they are mostly temporary and don't last.

I cannot prolong the inevitable. I guess I'll grease M$'s palms once more and get an Elite.

One question to you though...
Seeing as I have not had this problem before (while always playing Halo 2 on my 360 for over a year), How many of you were in the Beta and had your 360's fail only after playing in said Beta?
I don't recall ever hearing the fan unit on my 360 turn on during beta games, and I am wondering if the Beta cooked my console.
Just a thought, not an accusation.
