Hey everyone, this is my first time posting on these forums so i apologize if this is in the wrong section.
I have been having a problem with my 360 ever since i started playing watchdogs, at first i thought it was a bad copy, so i re-downloaded and re-installed the game via ftp several times, the problem still persists, randomly the game will either start lagging really bad then freeze and i will have to manually unplug the xbox (dashboarding wont work) or it would immediatly fatal crash back to freestyle. At this point i Decided to play a couple of other games to see if the same thing happens, i found the problem with GTA 4 aswell but others didn't seem to be affected, however the freezing is very random and sometimes i can play for up to 2 hours before it freezes, sometimes only for 5 minutes, and i only tested each game for 30 minutes.
I then thought it may be an overheating problem so i opened it back up and left it bare with 2 very big fans over both gpu and cpu, the system never reaches more than 52 degrees on any value and it still freezes randomly, no correlation between temperatures and freezing points.
Anyone who has any ideas on what might be wrong or can think of anything i haven't tried yet i very much appreciate any help you can give me, i'm at my wits end and considering just buying another xbox and starting again. Thank you in advance
A full list of things i have tried is as follows:
Clearing the system cache Clearing freestyle cache Reinstalling game Swapping to new HD and re-installed everything Opened xbox, stuck 2 big fans ontop CPU and GPU Deleting 0000000000000000 in content (accept xexmenu) Re-installed NAND and updating to 16747 Updated freestyle & dash launch Installed xbox $$ytemUpdate launching the game directly from xexmenu and not loading freestyle at all
System Information:
Kernel - v16747 (used simple NAND flasher v1.2) RGH Type - RGH 2 Chip - Cool Runner Freestyle - v3.0.775 Xexmenu - v1.1 & v1.2 Dashlaunch - v3.12 Program used for ftp - Filezilla 3.8.1
