ok i had a 360 for about a year and it got RROD and they sent me a new one. Ive had the new one for about a year now and it keeps overheating every 10 min. I have the nyko tempsmart intercooler which runs off its own power source and its on my tile floor in my middle room so its not hot. The weird thing is, is that when it supposedly overheats its not even hot. Its in horizontal position now but if i move it in vertical the disk tray wont open. I just need help as to some tkips on how to fix it or if microsoft will repair it for free. Thanks

once you've gone 1 year from your original purchase date, you'll have to actuall rrod before they'll fix it.

yeh, microsoft sort of kicked everyone in the nuts with the RROD. Once warranty is off you either have to pay them to fix it. (and if they want you to send it off, then take everything off including hard drive or they will lose it) You could fix it your self which isn't to much of a problem since the 360 is broken any way, watch a video online of how you can try to fix this on your own. (the only part that really matters in the box is the hard drive, you can insert into another x360 and play your games fine. Or you could sell it.
