I had originally Softmodded my v1.0 xbox (via mechassault exploit), but during certain games, a series of red lights would flicker on and off on the textures (usually in the background). The gameplay doesn't seem to be affected at all, but it is getting annoying.
Later, thinking that it was a software problem, I hardmodded with a x3 ce, and nothing has changed. These red lights appear independant of whether games are run from the dvd or the HD, and appears on more than one tv. and using more than one bios.
I think I may have narrowed it down to the video hardware... if anyone has heard of this ever before, let me know. A solution would be nice.

Never heard of red colors on an . Are you using the HD pack? What your describing sounds like red jaggies, which is a common problem with HD.
Further, how hot is your xbox getting? _________________
The temperature sensor usually in the 50 Celsius range, it doesn't get noticably hotter than that. It doesn't cause any other heat related problems (ie: instablity). Also, its the basic RCA pack. I was thinking that I should switch over to the HD, but am cautious cost-wise.
However, this is the first time I've heard of red jaggies, I can look that up in the meantime.

Basically TVs have a really hard time creating red colors, and the jaggies are just video artifacts. _________________
The HD pack does the same thing... hmmm.... tricky.
I'll keep my eyes open. Maybe I'll fool around with the tv settings and see if that yields any clues.
