For you people who've seen the Red Lights of Death. Did you have the Nyko Cooling Thingy attached? Did you play it for like 12 hours straight? I'm wondering if I can avoid seeing them red lights.

A lot of 360 owners believe that just keeping the console itself in a well vented area is good enough. However, you're also going to want to somehow elevate the power brick itself off the ground so the bottom isn't touching a surface (it dissipates heat on all sides). I used a small box with an open top and placed the brick on top.

Also, make sure you don't move the console when there's a disk running in it.

I've had my 360 for 6 weeks.

Thanks for the tips. Think I'll be picking up the Nyko cooler just in case.

DON'T. This actually CAUSES console death. It doesn't have it's own power supply so it causes the 360's to work overtime, actually causing more problems.
