    1. When does it restart?
    2. is it modded? (either softmod or modchip)
    3. did you do anything before this happened?

    Haha, this is a funny bug.

    However, it would be really bad if it auto-restarted in the middle of a game.

    I assume that this is a softmod gone wrong...

    A virus?

    Hardly...

    Could be numerous things, normally it's corrosion on the traces on the front of the motherboard.

    Look in my tutorials at the "My Xbox turns itself on".

    Could also just be a corrupt file on the dash...

    Xboxs are rarely "toast".

    A tiny bit over dramatic!
