Xbox 360 Failure: the cause and what you can do about it

So your Xbox 360 went kaptuz eh? Sadly this is the case with millions of fellow gamers, so you are not alone in your strife.

You are probably scratching your head at just what went wrong, and certainly it could be a number of things.
Here are the Xbox 360 failures you may experience:

Red ring of death (3 red lights on the display)
1 red light error
2 red light error
4 red light error
Graphics freezing
Disk read error


The most common Xbox 360 failure by far is the red ring of death. Although the 1 red light error is a close second.

The 2 red light error is a problem caused by too much heat on the motherboard. All you have to do is let your system cool down. If the problem persists, applying the same fix (as explained below) for the 1 and 3 red light Xbox 360 failure will fix your problem.

The 1 red light problem is not readily understood (even by the Microsoft staff) but it seems to be any number of general hardware or software failures. This can usually be fixed with the 3 red light repair method.

So what is the red ring of death?
This is an offspring of Microsoft trying to jump into the next generation of consoles too fast. In their haste, they made the cooling unit, the heat sink, too small to keep the motherboard cool.

Now motherboards overheat like crazy, and this overheating causes the x-clamps (on the back of the motherboard) to flex the motherboard up and down. This flexing action weakens the soldering which holds the GPU (graphic processing unit). The GPU eventually comes loose and you get the 3 red light (or sometimes 1 or 2) Xbox 360 failure.

To fix this problem you simply need to adjust where the heat sinks rest on the motherboard so the heat is relieved and the flexing does not cause the GPU to come loose.

You can fix your busted Xbox 360
The good news is the repair is simple. You can take it apart with a torx t10 and t8 screwdriver, and easily fix this problem in under an hour once you are set up.

Be careful NOT to get desperate and try the towel fix. That will only make matters worse.

Best of luck with your repair.

The games are extremly expencive even second hand ,Sony give up you are outruned, beaten by your competitors left with the crums .

I am trying to connect my xbox 360 to xbox live. The only way to do that without buying the 100 wireless adapter is to run it to the computer in my room. My computer connects to the internet wirelessly.

Game cheats. We’ve all used them. With computer and console games becoming faster and more advanced, the need for game cheats are becoming more and more important to complete these games. Often we don’t have enough time between work and social functions to dedicate enough time to finish an entire game, so game cheats are the way to go.

Whether it be Sony Playstation, Nintendo GameCube, Microsoft XBox, XBox 360, or computer games, game programmers often allow the player to either enter codes to unlock special weapons, secret levels, grant invulnerability or other ways to boost a characters’ growth, or game cheats can be a way of interacting with the game environment to help overcome what seem to be insurmountable situations.

Some gamers consider it bad form to use game cheats. In fact, there are purist gamers who feel that the total experience of gaming is lost once you use cheat codes or game cheats.

“You can’t be a Zulu Game Wizard using game cheats. Game cheats are for people who are too weak and give up too easily in the difficult parts of the games,” says longtime gamer Jasper Hom.

Others disagree and argue that they can’t appropriate enough time to gaming to make it past the hard parts of the games. Another problem gamers who use game cheats face is that by the time they are able to dedicate enough time to the game, a new game that they would rather play is already out on store shelves.

Whether you use game cheats or not, they are undoubtably a great way for amateur gamers to more enjoy and possibly finish some of today’s difficult and challenging games. The game cheats dilemma will always be an ongoing battle between those in the gaming community.
