Why is my xbox freezing and pixilates after about 3 minutes or so.

I turn on my xbox 360, it starts up fine and i can play for about 3-5 minutes then it frezzes and the screen pixilates. Anyone have the same issues or have solutions? I opened it up and cleaned any dust out.

Answer this question I have this problem too

This is most likely overheating, even if yo blew dust out. Even is it's not going RRoD, this could still be the issue. Here is a guide you can use to replace the thermal compound under the heatsink, which will almost certainly fix this issue. Good luck, ask me any more questions you have!
