I was playing orange box when the screen turned fuzzy and red lines started to appear on the screen, i turned of the xbox360 and opened it again. the screen turned black and all i can see is moving white dots. Please if anyone is experiencing the same problem and knows how this happens, and how to fix it please comment.

It sounds like theres a problem with the video card, im no expert but it has happened to me previously on other consoles and i let it cool down and it was all good.. That sort of thing normally happens when consoles overheat.. Have you been playing it non stop?

Hmmmm that's interseting. Try letting it cool down and then play it again. If the problem keeps happening then try opening the disc tray and blowing some air into it. Sometimes dust gets into it that causes over heating. If all fails.....send it to Microsoft for a free fix.

RROD is coming whenever you start to see dots onscreen.

I would look at the turrets and they would be all in NEON, funky. Then there was the pink and black squares on load up screens. Happened on the last 360 I had and on the "new" unit they sent me. The tech boys are pretty friggin clueless. They have no idea what I'm talking about and I can't get the whole ... Well that's another forum.
