Well, I doubted it belonged in 360 MODDING because it isnt a modded xbox.
Anyways, Me and my friends were coming along a road and found a xbox 360 Pro. We decided to see if it works and it does! We were amazed that we got a xbox for FREE! :junglejane:
Anyways, Our excited faces soon ended when we saw that about seven minutes into it being on weird black flashes and colours appear accross the screen. We have tried different cords and this doesnt work. On the startup of games like Halo 4 it starts up fine, But when it goes to Press Start the black flashes start. Its more like weird black shapes that come and go accross the screen whilst its on. The fastest the weird flashes of colour happen is when you start a game. But when you leave it on the main menu for about seven minutes it starts to happen there too. Mainly when you look at your avatar.
The weird thing is, It doesnt do it when you put a DVD in. At all. I tried watching Family guy Season 7 on it and nothing weird happened. We have tried two borrowed games off my friends and a brand new Gears of war game which we later returned.
Anyways, If i turn it back on after i turn it back off due to these colour flashes It starts to do it on the startup of the XBOX 360 then it continues from there. But if I leave it for five minutes after it being off it starts up fine.
When i turn it off though, Why i think its a overheating problem is because when i put my hand near the back of the xbox 360 its warm. Should it go warm that fast? Thats why i think its either the graphics card or the overheating.
Any help would be appreciated! - wy479
