The console is experiencing a general hardware failure. The strengths of what appears to be a simple overheating problem is the fact that the console is overheating already and is continuing to do so. The console will not boot because it is not programmed to shut down. When attempting to troubleshoot these particular problems, you need to determine exactly which component is failing. Sometimes, the most simple of fixes like adjusting the consoles BeautyScore or the scoring mode may just be the answer. Your ability to identify the specific cause of the problem also plays an important role in getting your console to work again.

Here are several reasons why your console may be overheating:


#1 An electrical failure in the ventilation area of the console. A power surge can cause a breakdown in the internal cooling systems and lead to overheating. When there is an electrical failure, the heat sinks can get way too hot and over time they will start to bend and warp. It is recommended that you simply try to move the console onto a hard surface and leave it there for a few hours. #2 The disc drive is not functioning properly. This can also be caused by a drive failure. I've heard of a few cases where the drive would still play but the console would not read anymore games. If this is the case, the drive may need to be replaced. #3 Your console is overheating. If you can find out why the console is overheating, you can hopefully work out a solution with simple household tools. If the console is overheating, your first port of call is to check the vents. It is advisable that you check inside the console first, as there are most often something that needs fixing. #4 Check the X-Clamps. The warranty for the Xbox 360 allows you to have a free replacement of the X-Clamps. These clamps do seem to produce a lot of heat on the motherboard and can warp the solder connections. This will result in a significant loss of electrical flow to the processors and result in a system error. Once you have identified the problem, the next step is to try and fix the associated problems using basic troubleshooting and basic safety measures. If the console is overheating, you should shut the console down and allow it to cool. Do not keep the door open whilst the console is running or use a surge protector or power strip. Keep the power pack up off the floor and not in a confined space. Run the console in a well ventilated area. Don't leave it on for hours on end either. If you are a bit more technically inclined, you can fix some of the overheating issues by using an Xbox 360 repair guide. The guides are very easy to follow and if you have access to a few household tools it is a case of removing the outer plastic casing, removing the hard drive, fan and DVD drives before getting in the screws. Once inside the console, you need to replace the heatsink from the GPU to the CPU. In order to do this you will need to dismantle the console and remove the heatsink along with the CPU and GPU chips. Then replace the heatsink. It is easy to replace the heatsink. Once you have located the X-clamp, apply a bit of thermal paste on the heatsink before replacing the clamps. Cross your fingers, then tighten clamps with a set of nylon washers until you have a nice clean puzzle. Sometimes, the problem does not even lie within the console. Sometimes it can be something as simple as a bad AV cable. If you are extremely unlucky, the problem does involve a badly repaired console that will not power on properly. If anything, you should just go out and buy a new AV cable. That is all that is needed. Once you have identified the problem, you will just need to fix it with whatever tools are necessary to get rid of the circle of death.
