johan, the purpose of the towel trick is to melt to solder, than reattach it or something...

Also, sucks that you got the RROD right before the Fall Update is coming out. Hope you get it all sorted soon.

Kev, I've heard the towel trick only works for like a week, then you have to do it again. Is this true?

I have done the towel trick and it has resolved it. I am dropping the drive speed to 4x over the weekend so it creates less heat and when i get my bike insurance paid il buy an intercooler for it to stop it happening.

Bamhm, i wont be updating my 360 with the fall update anyways as it will have detection software in it for iExtreme no doubt about it. Im going to refuse update and then wait for a new firmware for my drive.

Ah, right, forgot about all that. Hopefully for you, it doesn't take them too long to come out with a new upgrade.
