From what I understand , the problem is with a V-chip. My sons X-Box 360 just experienced its first "red ring of death" so we went on line in search of a solution and found videos about "the towel trick". You turn on the 360 minus video and ethernet cable, wrap it in several towels and let it run for about 20 minutes. After 20 or so minutes unwrap, turn off and let it cool down for 15 minutes. His worked after 2 tries. I know it's a temporary fix but at least he should be able to play it until the shipping box arrives from X-Box. Some people are reporting a 1 week turn-around time on repairs. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
