No problem bout the oven tutorial i was looking up on reflowing to see if i could do it myself and stumbled on that site and figured it may explain what happened in your case.
THanks Again! The tutorial explains what I thought might happen if I put it in my oven

Luckily it did.
I justt finished playing bioshock demo on my second 360 that I just put in the oven last night after doing x-clamp replacement. I dunno if it was hot enough or in thier long enough but something was smoking in there

No leakage in the caps on this one. I'm sure the x-clamp replacement (using 3 washers on gpu and shim) would last awhile but I figured I would bake it too to see how long it holds up.. I don't have second set of power cords for this so I need to track some down and then give it to friend to try and kill it. I also did the fan shroud split (with electical tap along the bottom of the shroud to create a seal against Mobo) and cut out the metal infront of the fans.
in lieu of the a tutorial, here is a link to the pictures I took w before, during and after baking My second 360. Only baked for 10 minutes this time to try and avoid Sizzling capicators..
http://picasaweb.goo...akingTheXbox360I don't think we need a tutorial until some terminally dead 360 are resurrected. There are few of you that have some dead ones so i would love to see you try this. My last oven adventure doesn't count so much since I did the x-clamp mod at the same time so the resurrected 360 may be a result of the mod only... But if it lasts That would be wicked
If you are worried about killing your 360 and wonder if it's safe, I don't know 100% But I have Baked two 360s and they are both working again because of it!
Anyhow let me know how it turns out!
Don' forget to do cooling mods as well so that it won't ever get so hot again.
