Any recommendations what I should do? It only seems to happen during demos, particularly the Viva Pinata demo and sometimes on boot up. Ive tried the cache dump and has anyone else had this happen?

Either way dude, you already knew what to do. If your repaired xbox does the same then it somehow is the HDD.

Weak sauce, man. Actually what happened with me, was the game graphics were corrupted... mainly in GRAWII and Crackdown.. really sucked. But... I have my Elite and It's served it's purpose since I got it.

what I dont get is the fact it happens specifically in demos, dashboard, and sometimes on bootup. Never on arcade games or discs. Odder yet is the thing wasnt used for 10 days (was out of town on vacation) and I come back and it suddenly has this problem.

i bought the arcade a few days ago and does the same thing only on viva pinata demo, it gave me an error message once that said there was a problem with the disk and it required cleaning... but the disk is brand new. I dont have an HDD since its the arcade so dont bother trying to find the problem there. Must be the demo itself. I was kinda worried with the console itself but it seems to run every other game just fine.

It's on it's last days...not joking. Usually when it shows corrupted graphics on the screen it's nearing the RROD stage. Call Microsoft before it happens at a time when you're just startin to have fun with a game.
