A few months ago, my Xbox 360 overheated. I was sad.

Very sad.

My parents were mad.

Very mad.

We thought we were going to have to throw it in the Trash, but before we did that, I did an internet search on ways to fix it. Of course, I stumbled across the manual way, involving taking apart the whole console, adding something, and putting it all back together. It took a few painstaking days, but I finally fixed it! I don't know the cause for it overheating though. Maybe my downloads were too big....Meh, I don't care. I fixed it!

Why were your parents mad?

CylonToast · 2012-02-10 09:30:03

Yeah, the XBOX is pretty high maintenance.

This is why you don't buy an Xbox360 in the first place.

They were mad because I had overheated it.

That's a normal problem. It wasn't necessarily your fault. XBOX 360s, especially the old ones, overheat. It's not rare
