360 - Picture is dark

[Geko]

My 360 looks funny. Can't really explain it, the image doesn't look right and is darker. Hard to play games.

Is it about to RROD?

Possibly yes

I have. Also had it on a couple of TV's.

Been a good performer. Had it since the 360 was released. Still has the xclamps. Think I'll change the clamps and give it a reflow.

hdmi or component?

Will be component as it's a launch machine. Have you tried the component as well as HD component outputs? That's if you have HD component input on your TV.

I have....

And a different lead...

My 360 looks funny.

Whats happened? It should look like this -

Spoiler:

My XBox looks like this...

Spoiler:

A little bit of cream cleaned it right up. My controller was in quarantine for three days, but it still spread and by XBox contracted RROD!

PS - RROD, sounds like the GPU is fading fast. Before it dies a death, a reflow may sort it. Nothing to lose trying.
