I'm sure you mean "Mr. LeavesHis360OnTheCarpetAndWondersWhyItBreaksMan.", but it does help to quote whomever you think is retarded. :bigwink:

If you think it's a heating issue, just go out and buy one of those nyco intercoolers for $20. I have one, and even laying it on the carpet and playing for 3 hours straight it doesn't even feel like it's been turned on.

Is it bad to have it on carpet? Even if it is standing up?

it's pretty much a bad idea to put any electrical device directly on the carpet

cleaning disc i bought that cleans electronics out
How about you dont do that? that was probably made to clean DVD players or something, not a 360

Exactly. It's like it's 1873 and people haven't discovered static electricity (http://www.sciencemadesimple.com/static.html) yet.

Even if it's standing up, your machine is still sucking up lots of dust and carpet particles. Too much of that stuff and your cooling fans will clog up and fail on you faster.

Dude i sent mine out about 5 weeks ago, and no i dont mean i ordered the box 5 weeks ago, I mean I sent the brown box ,with my 360 in it, back to Microsoft 5 weeks ago. I'm getting pissed off, this hit fucking sucks, I've never had a problem with any other system before, and all my past systems were Playstations and Gamecubes!

Reason I sent it out was because it kept scratching my discs, and it wouldn't read my discs any more, like whenever I put the disc in, it would say "Reading..." then it would just go to "Open Tray". Fuckin blows man. Good luck with your 360 man.

It might be something you did, 3 times tell my common sense that its not the 360's fault.

Those holes on the side of your xbox 360 will suck up all the dust from your room and deposit it onto all the xbox 360s vital components.

Bad grammar aside, putting anything electric on carpet is ill advised. While it's true you may never have a problem, it's also true that you're taking a risk. Hope yours doesn't break.

My 360 sits on 2 stacks of games, on th floor, one on each end of the system to make sure as much heat as possible escapes. Is it possible to clean your 360 by yourself, to get rid of dust? My 360 sits probable 4 inches off the floor at least, and im not sure if its at risk for too much dust and what not.

this is why you should wait about a year before you buy the new consoles. Gotta give them time to work all the bugs out.

Especially now that the consoles are getting so complex,

When I read the name and you said you were banned I thought...Hitsusori Kisei? But I'm pretty sure he had more than 900 posts.

Would having it on carpet cause the system to freeze, because I don't think that this is my problem. I have already sent in 1 system, they sent me another one, and sometimes it will sound like the disk drive is clicking. It will click for like 30 seconds and then the disk read error message comes up...
