I just fixed 2 Xbox 360's with the 3 RROD tonight. One was fairly stubborn. After I put the new paste/washers on, I unplugged the fans, and let it overheat until it had the 2 red lights. Then I waited exactly 2 minutes when it had the 2 red lights, and then turned it off. I let it cool down for 15 minutes, and turned it on. Success! Make sure you overheat it. That's probably the step you forgot about.

Those are the same sinks I have. Try over heating for different amounts of times until it works. I had to over heat 3 time.

If the xbox doesnt work after overheating try loosening the screws, or tightening them; there has to be a perfect amount of space between the heatsinks and the board.:smile:
