X box Red ring of death. What to do to fix it


Im getting a Red ring of death X box that has been tampered with so Microsoft wont fix it. What exactly does Microsoft do to fix these things. I imagine not to many people know because they want to keep it under wraps but someone has to know or someone has a link to a site that tells you

Its not my X box that I play now.

I bought a pro series 360 and it has a rede ring of death.

The reason I bought it is because I want the hard drive off it.

I would like to fix the box but if I cant its ok because all I want is the HD off it anyway

But it would be awesome if I could fix it so I would have two Microsoft X box 360's

supposedly the towel trick heats up the xbox enough so whatever got loose sauters back together from the heat. that's the only at home fix it known right now.
