Kitsune Inferno Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 My 360 has problems playing games. After a while, three lights (quadrents 1,3, and 4) started flashing. Games will only play for three minutes. I tried unplugging it for a while, I tried taking off the hard drive, nothing works. Can you guys help? BTW: I can't send it back to Microsoft; the warrenty already expired and I voided it, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris82 Posted November 2, 2006 Share Posted November 2, 2006 It could be that it's overheating. Make sure the vents aren't blocked and it's in an open area. Do you have problems doing other things like going through the dashboard or watching DVDs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsune Inferno Posted November 2, 2006 Author Share Posted November 2, 2006 (edited) I bought a third party fan stand, but that thing didn't really work. I found a lot of dust in the fans of both the fan stand and the 360. The last time I saw a DVD on it, it went through the whole movie, but that was before it was acting up. I put it in an entertainment center, which has a lot of room for it. Hell, I unplugged it for 23 hours and it froze up after 6 minutes. My hope is that I don't have to buy a new one, because that would take a few months. Edited November 2, 2006 by TEC 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitsune Inferno Posted November 6, 2006 Author Share Posted November 6, 2006 (edited) Screw it. The thing fried, it's unfixable, and I'll just look for one in town when I get money. Edited November 6, 2006 by TEC 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommy vercetti guy Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 What? Another 360 that'll just give up on you just like the first one? Screw 360, get a PS3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsune Inferno Posted November 11, 2006 Author Share Posted November 11, 2006 (edited) I don't have the money for a PS3. The person in charge of any income in my family (my dad) isn't a big gamer. And besides, I can't live without Xbox. AND NEVER TRY TO SWAY ME TO SPEND $600 ON JUST A SYSTEM THAT COULD VERY WELL HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS TO THE XBOX 360. And getting a new Xbox because... (1. Xbox Live kicks ass. (2. I have history with Microsoft. (3. I now know what NOT to do with the Xbox. (4. All I really need is just the working console. Plus, you can't get Saint's Row on the PS3. You can't get Halo 3 on the PS3. YOU CAN'T EVEN GET GEARS OF WAR ON PS3. Edited November 11, 2006 by TEC 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
