Ok so i was playing my xbox fine yesterday, no problems what so ever, then all of a sudden my disk tray started jamming... i didnt think much of it and assumed it would be an easy problem to fix, Then this morning i put it on and attempted to play skate 2, it froze and gold coloured pixels were across the screen, i restarted my xbox and had a red light. i waited for about an hour for it to cool down to see if this had any affect, This time it come on but im still getting the gold pixels across the screen. any help would be much appreciated!!

the pixels don't appear when you're using the tv for something else? have you tried unplugging the xbox completly and plugging it back again?

I only have 2 suggestions and if the problem keeps persisting you might have to get your 360 repaired.

Try the clear cache trick, i had some weird pixalation problems with a couple games and the clear cache fixed it right up. Go to your system settings click on memory now hit the Y button on whatever your main device is, after that enter X X LB RB X X, a message should pop up asking if you want to perform system maintanance.. say yes.

If that doesnt work you might have to just play the game from your HDD by installing it.. and if the problem still persists after you try all that you might be screwed =/

I have one question for you, is it just Skate 2 that's acting up or all your games?

if it was 1 red light, that means that something is either hooked up wrong, or your cables are defective. if it is 3, send it to m$
