wrap it up in a duvet and leave it on it will solve itself mate
if you still have the receipt mircrosoft will fix it, see there website for details of this.

This is only a temporary solution, i would NOT do this if you want to send it to be fixed.

depends whats wrong with it, if the disc has a nice circular scratch on it then i dunno if microsoft will fix it, there was a peice on this on Tv a few weeks ago, older ones have a serious problem on them and they just blame it on the user saying that they move it whilst its in use........ if its not a scratch and its just a hardware/software problem send it off, if they blame you...... get a PS3 owned one for 2 years, aint got a single problem with it!!

just ring microsoft up and they will arrange collection. it takes 5 - 7 working days to send it to germany / fix it / and return it. i collect and deliver dozons of these things every day. most people buy them second hand - have no receipt - and still get them fixed foc ! i even know of one guy who buys bust machines for peanuts - gets them fixed and sells them on again. dont send it back in the original box as you get it returned in a plain white box.
if you need any more help / info - pm me and i will try and help.

Had to be said
Just send it off, it's not worth doing all the DIY fixes, they only work temporarily.

it must be a ps3 in xbox clothing pete, no other explanation, infact id consider contacting microsoft if i was you! lol
My XBox console was bought brand new in November, never had no problems with it not even after 18 hour sessions.
EDIT: I have heard the first off the line consoles are prone for dying though.

X-Box FTL!! ya get more complaints about x-boxes then ya do about ps3's! actually, apart from the odd game glitch, i dont think i have heard of a big problem with them at all!!

lol probably because not many people buy PS3's...they cost too much IMO.
And in english??
Comparing Bluray to Minidisc?
Minidisc died a death, Bluray has beaten HDDVD. Bluray is the future, unfortunately
