Hey guys,

The fans on a friends 360 (The same one that had rrod (fixed)). Are spinning insanely fast, and you can hear them getting faster and faster.

Any idea how to stop this?

Dan.

Turn off the 360 and let it cool?

Hasn't been on for a week beforehand, starts speeding up like mad as soon as powered up.

Could mean its dying. My xbox wasn't on for a month, and I fired it up to play Reach when it came out, a few seconds into the intro and it got e74.

Hmm, only just been repaired.

Will have a word with him tomoz and see what he wants doing.

From my experience it's going to die soon I suggest you trade it in.

Cheers guys... Do you think this could have been caused by a dodgy fix? As he paid someone to do the RROD, and if that could be why I think he should have some words with him.

This will solve all of your heating problems. It has unmatched airflow. The only problem is, it has a tendency to destroy your eardrums.

Liquid Nitrogen and Helium are both, well, dumb. They are generally unsafe to use over any period of time, and both are hard to find (at least for the average person). Look up phase change cooling, its what I want to do as my next project.

they are safe, but they are all used within 20 minutes, so its pointless.

Correction, what I meant was, they are unsafe to use for a longer period of time. And yes, it is a waste of money, unless your trying to break a world record.
