dead link, brah

i would have said your GPU is on the fritz, as is usally the case with graphic issues, but this a relatively new box - though that still doesnt rule out a looming GPU failure. are there any other symptoms?

Alright, here's hoping someone reads all the way to the end of this thread...

My X360 is acting up: I can play for like 10 minutes, and then the screen freezes. I have to power the system off and restart, at which time the freeze happens more quickly than before. This happens with every game I have tried thus far, including Arcade titles saved on the hardrive.

I do NOT every get a red ring or anything like that. I have tried several times with different games over the past three days, and have had this happen each time, approx 10-15 minutes after I strt playing, though sometime it is shorter. I have heard that sometimes claering the hardrive cache can help, but I am unsure of how to do this with NXE? If that doesn't work, any other ideas?

FYI, this is a launch system from 2005, I am sure people will blame that, but ...

disclaimer: i am not a 360 mad scientist, just speaking from experience.

had this happen to me about a month ago. started with the above then led to the RROD after about 2 more weeks. not saying it is definitely going to happen, but the same symptoms led me down the path of the dreaded rings. keep it in mind.

also, i believe these symptoms have nothing to do with the HD or NXE...just a side-effect of using Microsoft!

Thanks for the posts, I went back to it and its fine :o . Thanks anyway.fabfabregas

that is good to hear, but fyi: that does not mean the the problem is permanently resolved - only temporarily. someone else mentioned it above and was spot on; the gpu is starting to get the rickets (overheating). happened to me a month ago. eventually the image would lock up no matter how many time i reset and, lo and behold, RROD!

not saying its GOING to happen, but keep it in mind. better to be in the know when things go sour than all "WTF?!?"
