There are many ways it gets the RRoD.The way Microsoft made their system is why. When you take the top and bottom off the outside of the xbox all you have on the inside is the motherboard sitting inside a metal case. if you take the mother board out of the case and flip it over you see 2 X clamps and around those X clamps are some little cards. and over them are these lil heat obsorbers but they can only obsorb so much heat and when they can obsorb anymore the cards get too hot and cant breathe and also the heat sinks. 1. The heat sinks could have alot of dust in them and can get no air through to keep the system cool. 2. the heat sinks and the X clamps on the bottom could be messed up. To decrease the risk of gettin the Red Ring of Death is to get your xbox in an area where the top and bottom have atleast 8 in. away from any enclosed area and the back atleast 5in away. and every once in a while i say about every 3-6 months use a air can and spray inside the wholes to remove as much dust as possible.
