The xbox gets soooooo fucking hot and microsoft being the cheap bastards that they are used shitastic soldering. So the soldering heats up due to normal use to the point where it melts. When the soldering cools, sometimes it doesn't properly connect the component pins well enough or at all. So you get all these abnormal open circuits.

I have seen them fixed at home. My buddy used to fix his xbox the same way it broke. He would turn it on, wrap it in a ton of blankets so no heat escaped the system. After a few hours, the system will automatically shut down as an overheat precaution. He lets it cool slowly by unwrapping the xbox just a bit. Once its cooled, just plug it in and see if it works. If it doesn't work, he just did the process over again until he finally sent it in on warranty over the summer lol.

 Not sure about how it works in England but heres how it goes in Australia
1. Call them up and explain that your xbox shit itself
2. They'll send an email with the contact info which you print out and stick on your box.
3. Put your xbox in a box and pad well. Like seriously well.
4. Say goodbye to it at the post office
5. Cry at home about your xbox until you get an email saying its fixed
6. Cry again
7. Sit outside till the package arrives. (which in australia is like 5 days from sending it)
8. Get the package, which is surprisingly shitter than the one you sent and play till you kill it again + enjoy a month of xbox live.

 Seriously, I had the 3 Red Lights of Death several times on my old Xbox, because the old ones fail, hard. I got a new one and I've not had a single red light yet.
