Recently my Xbox is freezing and having screen issues. It started while playing MW3, it froze while loading into a game, I restarted the system and while waiting for my friend's game to end, went to a blank black screen. I restarted the system again and loaded everything up and was playing when it froze mid-game. I then took MW3 out of the tray and let the Xbox sit on, it no longer loaded my default profile and was on the selection screen for a few minutes, then the avatars began getting distorted and so I shut it down and played PS3.
The next day I tested it again, I loaded into MW3 and it went to "black screen" while coming out of a game, post match. Therefore I started up GoW3 and was in a game and the screen changed to a bunch of colored vertical lines and froze.
It appears to be happening 5-10 minutes of the system being on or gameplay and varies from straight freezing, to black screen, to vertical line screen. I do not know what caused this but everything was working properly only a few days ago. Since it happens across multiple games it is definitely a system issue and I do not know how to resolve it.
Has anyone else experienced this and what can I do to fix it?
Also, what are some methods to pull off the saved data while I still can?
