Now, simple question. I bought my 360 about 2 weeks ago and since then, it's froze a few times and lagged a bit (not on Xbox Live). Now, I'm just wondering if I should be concerned about this or does this happen to your 360 often?

Yeah, supposedly it's a result of the fall dashboard update. I've had the problem numerous times, but there have been no longer term damages. I've even left my 360 on all night while playing Dead Rising and I've had no problems. It shouldn't be of any concern.

If it freezes often then you should be worried. If you bought it used it might have been one of the ones made before january 1, 2006 in which case microsoft might fix it for free though I don't know if you'd be able to get that service since you aren't it's origenal purchaser.

it shouldnt be freezing constantly if it continues contact microsoft support it could be defective, it may freeze once in a while if its like 3 times a day its got something wrong. The freezing is simply due to the 3 Processors running at 3.2 ghz, it usually happens when you overload then, for example, if your listening to music and then trying to open a private chat while the game boots or sometimes when your running music and you go to accept a private chat. Don't worry to much about it.

Hmmm. I haven't been doing anything like that. Usually, I'm just racing in Need for Speed: Most Wanted, and shooting people in Gears of War. At first I thought it might be the discs, but it's been happening a lot with the others too, usually freezing once a day or so.
