How can I keep my Xbox 360 in good shape? I just bought it 2 weeks ago and I really want to keep good care of it. So can anyone give me some advice to keep my Xbox 360 in good shape?

I’ve also noticed there is always hair and dust on top of my Xbox 360 somtimes and when I wipe it off with my hand it ussualy grows back. Is it because my Xbox 360 is sitting on the carpet? Can somone also tell me how to prevent dust getting into the Xbox 360 so it won’t get damaged, and also a few other tips to keep my Xbox 360 in good shape?

Thank you!

  1. I’d put it in a well ventilated TV-Center and try not to use it for extended periods of time. People insist the Red Ring of Death is caused by the glue holding together the motherboard coming apart or the motherboard warping or something.

  2. I would suggest moving your Xbox 360 off of the carpet, they tend to get hot during extended periods of play. Wiping the exterior with a dry cloth is a good way to get rid of the dust. I have NYKO intercooler and it works great at cooling the 360 down, I would recommend getting it. Also make sure that you do not move/shake the console while a disc is in the optical drive this can cause serious problems.

  3. my tips are…
    1.buy the intercooler, the intercooler will keep your system from overheating, and destroying the console
    2. get the 360 off of the carpet…preferably on a table…just away from the ground

  4. 1. play 2-3 hours only a day

    2. dont cover the air holes

    Dont use the nyko, Use the AC
    :P

  5. keep it clean
