Random power off

Post by blighty »

Was using one of my xbox's to play some tunes with the visualization giving it some yesterday for about an hour and out of nowhere the xbox shut down, hesitantly i turned it back on and went straight to system info to find the cpu temp scrolling back down from 90 degrees, I Immediately powered it back off again and pulled the lid off ( wasn't bolted down ) and first checked the heat sink dabbing it with my finger but it wasn't hot.. :shock:

That's when i noticed this :twisted:
