I've done a cost ratio analysis and my xbox has provided me far more enjoyment for the 300 I spent on it compared to the thousands my gf costs me.

I googled my problem and it seems like its common enough.Its about 3 years out of warranty so my only solution is to fix it myself or pay $150 for a new arcade version.Look at what people have said works for them.Are you fucking kidding me?
My Sons Xbox had sound but a blank screen. at first i thought it was the video leads.. Borrowed a set from his friend but still the same.. blank screen but sound.
Solution: 1. Turn on Xbox 360. 2. Take one dry bath towel, and cover the entire 360 tightly (1 layer). 3. Check every 4 minuntes, for 20 minutes. 3a. If the red, half circle pops up turn it off promptly. 4. Turn off the 360. 5. Let it cool for 10 minutes.
Always avoid direct sun light to the console.
Reason it works: 1. The heating compound on the heat sync has dried up, and broken the video connection. 2. When in the towel, it heats the heat sync up to (approx 110-120 degrees). 3. The heating compound becomes liquid. 4. That creates a connection to the heat sync.
