aaron Posted June 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 well towel trick worked, but its only temp. Had it for about 18months jamie. It is a right kick to the nuts. Im stuck with the bloody wii till i get it properly fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemaher85 Posted June 14, 2008 Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 What exactley is the towel trick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron Posted June 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2008 turn the xbox on while it has the red lights. wrap 4 towelsround it covering the airvents so it cant breathe. It heats up the xbox and tricks it into thinking its ok. Something inside the xbox softens or soemthing and lets it work. After 20 mins of towel wrap unwrapp and turn off the xbox. turn it back on and it works fine. It is only temp tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
