Most of it is either overheating or something happening to the DVD drive. Mine had to have the DVD drive belt replaced the first time and if that's what broke this time I will lose it .
Aye, ours is in its second cycle of 'ring of death'. I've read that poor design leads one of the circuit boards to overheat and bow.... the "towel fix" heats it so much that things pop back into place.

The best fix seems to involve voiding the warranty with proper cooling and some sodder work.... otherwise, its keep calling MS Warranty over and over.
