    My elite had this problem, What i done was call xbox support and told them i had RROD.. They repaired it under warranty for me, They replaced the Motherboard and dvd drive which is the standard fix nowadays.

    is it the bottom right red light thats flashing? if so it indicates a hardware error. Could be caused by a faulty AV cable, so if you have a spare or a mate's that you can try. is the machine under warranty?

    its normally caused by an AV chip which is located just behind where the av cables go in. something to do with the AV interfaces between the xbox and tv.

    Its not the RROD fault though, although the RROD can be fixed with 8p!!
