How to prevent your xbox 360 from over heating and from the red rings of death??

keep it ventilated..

like i keep the power adapter thing on a box behind the tv.. so its kind of high up and so a little ventilated..

for the xbox360 i put thin sponges on the botton on both sides of the xbox360.. and so far so good

Short of these precautions, there isn't much you can do. Unfortunately the 360 breaks down much more then any other system, and until Microsoft really nails down the problem and, more importantly, fixes it, this will continue to be a problem. Hopefully the latest ones have these issues fixed, but if not, hopefully soon because this is getting ridiculous.

-Keep your system well ventilated and make sure there is nothing blocking any of the vents.

-Make sure the surface is hard and stable.

-Clear off dust and dirt from your system, especially the vents. Check your vents more often if you have pets.

-Do not keep your system on the carpet.

-Do not move your system while it is on, and especially when a disk is spinning.

-Do not use any of the stupid cooling systems that are on the market.

Other then these things, just hope man. Good luck and enjoy your gaming....while it lasts.:P;)

cooling stands are ok. The 360 sucks from the bottom as well, giving it more air from that end is good.

will an xbox360 with a new chip or something be really made??? if it is when will it come out?? will it really solve the problem of the redrings?

I rather have an unsable console that has a minor chance of breaking and enjoy playing it, rather then having a big black pile of plastic collecting dust next to my tv.loky3000

i just hope that microsoft soon omes out with a solution or a fix..
