[BNM] [OT] Xbox 360 question

[James Bradshaw]

You always leave the Xbox turned on for a while wrapped in a blanket let

Worth a try even if you get a new one and sell the refurbished one later.

It's also been doing odd graphical weirdness recently, so I'm guessing its the gfx chip or the anna, hana,spanna chipset that has gone.
