Usually.....normal repair takes 2~5 days if parts are available.

might be waiting for a replacement part.

Anyone can help? When i boot my xbox everything goes fine and i can play games for hours. But its just that, there are texture glitch where i can see white dots appear and disappear on the screen which is distracting like an oldies film from the 50s.

Iam using a falcon, havent really checked the wires/cables behind.

Did you use any external coolers? try to take them off and see if it helps

My 360 still displays the white dots which appear and disappear like the oldies movies. I don't put any external cooling fans.

No, no rings at all. I can play games perfectly, just that the screen is kinda annoying. White dots appear and disappear every now and then. i think the gpu is fried. But thats just me, i dont know whatelse to think of.

might be sign of overheating or a bad GPU...... the GPU can be replaced with a price of course

today I got a call from the shop ( after 1 month )informing that the problem is caused by 3 rod..he said it will cost me RM400 to repair the console and without warranty..what the !@#$ !..I asked the shop to return the console to me and I'll look at other shops..

If the shop you mentioned is with name ended with "2" then I can assure you, his method is far more better than any x-clamp solution.

If you wonder if it's the GPU, you can always ask Tech2 as you know they have plenty of GPU to be replaced.
