Hey all! I’ve had my Xbox series X for a year, it has always sat upright on my entertainment center. I just bought a house that the living room has a wood stove in it which is used to heat my house. Ever since we moved, when we start the wood stove the Xbox cannot run a game for more then 5 minutes without it running the error message for it being too hot. We have a large ceiling fan and a box fan moving hot air throughout the house from the living room, but the problem is not being fixed. I used computer duster to ensure the Xbox was sufficiently cleaned as well. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to keep the Xbox nice and cool on my entertainment center? I know those cooling docks are usually a scam, but I can’t run a game at all and I need to run my wood stove to keep my house warm all winter in Idaho.
I’m not sure, maybe around 70 hours until it started happening a lot, like every hour. I haven’t played much since the last update though so I don’t know if they fixed the problem.
