The real fix is easy heres a video walk through
This walk through shows you every step all the items you need to do it and the chick who shows you how to do it is easy on the eyes...
If you can mount a heatsink on a mother board you can do this.

You're welcome.
ive made a few bucks fixing xboxes using this method so ive tested this fix
EDIT: Screw all the asshats on the web that want to charge you for the information on how to do it yourself F*CKING piles of shit.
Anytime anyone asks me if i can fix an xbox i point them to that video and tell them if they dont think they can do it ill do it for 50 bucks. Thats Fair

Don't see how that is the dumbest idea ever Correct me if I'm wrong, but those parts cost money and I don't see the point. The towel trick was just a "last chance" thing to try before dr pepper sends the console in for free to get fixed

because excessive heat and electronics dont go well together. melt shit = no warrenty and if he didnt want to wait the parts cost all of 10$ and you can fix other xboxs and make a few bucks while your at it
you even said it your self here ( with a little correction) "p.s. this is done at ur own risk :P don't come crying to me if your xbox CATCHES on fire."

Ah i see..
However wouldn't they know you opened up your xbox, if you weren't able to fix it with the video you posted? I'm not sure if it voids the warranty.
