Simple remove your HDD, any games, and AV cable from your box, leaving the power cable connected.
Wrap that baby up in 3 or so towels, set it on the floor (Make sure you turn it on) and go do something for about 30 minutes.
When you return, your room should smell like burnt plastic.
Unwrap your Xbox, unplug power cable and sit on a tile floor or in front of a fan to cool for 25 minutes.
Then plus it all back in, and Viola! your Xbox should be (almost) as good as new.
WARNING!:
If you Xbox is still under warranty, I do not reccomend doing this.
Just send it back.
Xbox isn't under warranty so I have nothing to worry about.
But I have tried the towel trick and it refuses to work.
I have wrapped it in 4 towels and have left it on for OVER 24 HOURS!
And it still would not get hot. The next day I unwrapped it and it felt the same as the day before.
So my question is, why is the xbox not getting hot at all?
