Yo. Ive had my 360 for two years now. Never had any issues with it until now. Ive been playing Rainbow Six and C&C 3 and whenever im in xboxlive playing RS every couple of minutes the game and the console freeze up on me. But this NEVER happens during C&C. I then have to turn it off and on and log in all over again. Driving me nuts. The RS cd isnt in bad shape or anything and ive never got these infamous three red lights of death.

I know nothing about tech so if anyone has had similar problems or recognises the symptoms and knows how to help... ill call you superman forever... FOREVER

Is is freezing with graphical glitches?  Like messed up color or a checkered pattern?  If so then your 360 is done.  If not then it might just be the game....

NO, your xbox should be fine. That happenned witneed for speed most wanted and it was just the game. I went to the original store where I bought the game and they gave me a new most wanted game and everything worked perfect.

I get that sometimes and i've only had my 360 for a month, seems to happen when my 360 has been on for some time. Maybe an Intercooler 360 might help you.

You mentioned you were playing on Live when your console froze. Try rebooting your modem and router if you have one and make sure your internet connection is not in use by another device such as a pc. Poor internet performance could cause an Xbox 360 freeze.

I've had my 360 for the same 2 years as well. Also, I have the same problem with RSV. Except it happens to me after an hour or so. I just deal with it.
