Wow.. I'm dissapointed and I didn't even buy this kit. It's almost like the penny/eraser fix but with foam pads cut nicely for you guys.

Well I know you guys are looking to bash this BUT count up the first recorded success! Yay!

I had secondary error code 0102 and I'm pleased as hell. It's been a door stop for months on end (although that was partially self inflicted as I had lots of work and didn't need the extra distraction on top of my Wii) and now it's a working console! For a while at least.

I was just about to come on here and moan but I tested my code again and realised my DVD wasn't seated properly! So I was sooooo happy when it had actually worked.

Right now my problem is what game do I play?!?! Halo, Bioshock, Orange Box, Mass Effect, Rez HD, PGR3..... the list goes on. My girlfriend and my boss are going to hate it.

i think this will be better if it was combined with the artic silver thermal upgrade and/or the x-clamp replacement.

This has to be an elaborate joke. Fucking rubber pads? Hardly a kit, just go to the store and buy the same thing.

I do have a feeling however, that people are doing this wrong. My guess would be that you put the pads under the center of the X clamps (between the X clamp and the motherboard), and put the other 2 on the RAM chips under the GPU heatsink. It makes a lot more sense to me, and would probably be a lot more effective, though of course, most likely temporary. There are no official instructions, so this is of course a guess. How thick are the pads? If they're 1mm, then my guess should work better, if they're 2mm, then keep them under your RAM chips, and wait for the 3 red lights to come back.

so this set is a compilation of materials that you can buy at every hardware store for 1/5th of the price. and when you bought it you still have to search the internet to find out what you have to do with the parts. and when you find out what to do with you will probably also find out that you have been screwed.

The same as the llamma kid for modding the ring of light to another collor. The kit is for sale for almost 5 dollar.
I bought those led voor 14 cents each. excaclty the same materials.

found a manual. This was created by one of the distributors of the kit, Seems to me the kit is bull*** i will help because the pads adopt heat better an insure the ram chips are staying ' cooler' but when you have a 360 with loose x clamps or bad solder joint you still have to go through the x-clamp fix proces with bolts and washers. This i just a addition on the excisting fix, not a solution.

check the manual

Well it does look like good quality rubber! And I have to say that it made me get off my arse and actually fix my 360. Well worth the £5 to me.

Lets see how long it lasts now. I am appreciating every second I get and turning my 360 off at every opportunity to try and get a bit extra play out of it.

Added two pages ago! I used this advice and it worked.

Seriously thinking about combining this with further mods to try and get it to old age.

God i had to sign up for this because i dont want anyone else ripped off by these people. THIS IS NOT A FIX.
You get 2 screwdrivers which most people have anyway and 4 little pieces of sticky rubber, i am livid i have been ripped off. There are no instructions , after searching i found a guide to putting them on the RAM but as most of us already have microsofts own RAM cooling solution they are pointless.

I cannot express how utterly disappointed with Executer i am, they used to be held in extremely high regards but good god did they manage to slump to the bottom of the pile now. In my opinion they thought they would cash in on MASS pre order of this product, why else would they not release ANY images or explanations of the kit????? Well because no one would buy it, so they create a demand and purposely allow thousands of people to pre order to then be let down on mass.

What an eye opener, avoid like the plague!!  mad.gif  sad.gif

This is a quick fix and obviously works in some cases. It's only 5$, so it's worth a try. 1 Torx screwdriver alone cost 5 Euro's here.

Has anyone measured the thickness of the pads? Is it 1mm or greater?
