Our xbox had something wrong with it, so my friend opened it up and found out that the CPU was dirty. We cleaned it and then tried to overheat it to reset it. It wouldn't overheat, after hours. We wrapped it and the cord in blankets. It wouldn't overheat, so it wouldn't reset. We looked it up and found out that is because its a slightly newer model than the original, and the CPU was changed so it wouldn't overheat as easily. So basically its fixed, but we need to reset it, and we don't want to send it in just for that. Any ideas?How to fix an Xbox 360?I actually know something easier. this happened to my son and he found this toll free number and it really helped him. He didn't even have to send it to Microsoft which can be a hassle. This number told him what to do and it worked

Hope this helpedHow to fix an Xbox 360?You've basically bricked your 360. Too many people try at home fixes and end up messing them up more. Overheating it does not reset it. You're now stuck with a console that won't work and Microsoft won't touch it because it's been opened.
