i get a call from my local game/cd/movie buyback store about a 360 that turns off after a few minutes of play time. ok, i can probably fix that...

so i get it home, and turn it on. boots dashboard fine. then i notice, that the fan keeps stepping up power, until its running full blast after about 3 minutes on from completely cold. hmmm! what could it be.

1 round in the washing machine fixed up the case, and a run with the air compressor takes care of the mobo. all fresh and clean. this thing was dirty on the outside too. really gross inside though.

Wow... I'd almost be proud of that. It takes effort to put that much dirt on a system. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif)

was it sand or dust?

i don't see how sand got stuck like that surely if you shook the console it would all just fall off if it was sand that is

wonder where it was, looks like the buildup you get from paint dust

Looks like the backs on half the TV sets I get called out to. Horrible. If there is that much people are in danger of Lung Disease.

What kind of chain smoker owned that thing. I'm surprised its still visibly white on the outside.
