Hey follow Palgner's my Xbox360 has recently (like yesturday) started doing this, does this mean my xbox is broke and would it be best to get a new one (like say a slim haha)
Note that is one of the 20GB Xbox360's with the HDMI slot.

Yar, that's the sign your graphics card is frying. You don't have long to live I'm afraid.

Yeah, mine did too.
Juztin ... what is the date of manufacture of the console? If it is still within the 3 year warranty, I'd be playing it until it gives the E74 error. Then you can get it fixed for free and sell it on eBay, which would give you some cash to put towards the new slim model

Mine actually was doing that once it warmed up and all it ended up being was the fans weren't working properly. It was out of warranty so I replaced them and its still working today you should try to fix it before it gets damaged, but obviously if yours isn't out of warranty you should get it fixed by microsoft.

yeah most likely will just eBay or (and Gumtree) it, should also put the other 2 Collectors Edition Console I have up on there also, which are a Panasonic Q (Japanese Gamecube with DVD Player, and a Dreamcast Regulation 7 Console) wondering how much I will get for them (Panasonic Q needs a new Fuse)
Did have a rare Dreamcast game but got damaged  , which sucks has I paid $250 for the damn thing.
