We can make it better, faster, stronger than before. It will be the ironman of the xbox world, it will have the spirit of a phoenix and the physical prowess of Chuck Norris, it will be 360 Ascended!!!!!!!!
but yeah, glad you got at least a temporary fix (who knows if the fix will hold up or if it's a more pressing issue with the unit)

well, it was definatly an overheating issue, as there was no rrod, just graphical corruption when the unit was warm/hot.... an hour cool down allowed playback for a while until it warmed up...
also, the thermal compound on the chips was all dried out/useless.
also, the heatsink pads were gooey.... so i guess another 2 years before i have to do it all over again.
