You basically just towel tricked your 360. If you could actually use an oven to seriously reflow and Xbox 360, everything would fall off of the board.

Well yeah, the reason I said it was YMMV with unmolested consoles because this one still had the original X-Clamps in place and the board didn't have any severe bending, so I figured instead of letting a friend of mine spend time doing a reflow I'll see if a bit of an oven "reflow" will do the trick and so far so good, been playing on the console for the last few hours without any stuttering or freezing, but only time will tell how well this works for console that haven't been overly abused in "repair" attempts, I'm thinking of buying my own reflow station to do the repair myself, have any recommendations?
