GM-University 0 Report post Posted February 24, 2005 I heard about that also, but it really isn't a problem with the XBOX, just the power cord. They where over-heating, and here is a bit of a science lesson for you all, when rubber is heated too much it can explode, and over-heating might also fry your XBOX's cirtcutry, I hope mine is over a year old, I don't remember, when did i buy it, I think it was two summers ago...?
