[HELP]Non RROD 360 problem:

I'm having an issue w/ the video output on my 360. I was playing Dead Space yesterday when the picture became hazy. The best way I can describe it as a pixellation/artifact effect accompanied by a subtle screen flicker. This problem was present on the dashboard as well.

I tried restarting the 360, and the video was perfect for about five minutes before this started happening again. Now, I can't seem to get a picture at all. The sound is still ok.

No red lights...what gives? I've tried plugging/unplugging everything and even a different video cable.

Any suggestions? SDTV btw.

    Sounds like the beginnings of what might become RROD. It may simply be that your video card has gone ka-put. In which case I would buy up that extended warranty (if you don't already have it) and send it in to MS.

    Ugh, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks.
