Dusty Monster 923

Surprising where dust can get to, use a laser lens cleaning disc on a regular basis to keep it clean.

Even a single speck of dust on the lens can affect how it reads discs.

Mmm, dust doesn't always equal the problem, if the xbox, just like anything with a hard drive, motherboard, etc. Needs to be in a dry but cool environment, OP. Too much heat slows a system down normally. Moisture can accumulate and cause problems, so technically,
dust is the opposite as long as it doesn't get clog up in the system's fan (Back of Xbox) hope that info helps!

As long as you don´t shoot the dust in there with one of this pressure cleaner crap there should be no problem.

Maybe check your power supply ones in a a while to make sure it is not clocked with durst.

My house gets dusty too, but luckily my wife is like Monica from Friends and she is a clean freak so it's usually ok. I haven't had any problems dust wise, but when I am finished playing and after it has cooled down I put it in a drawer with a towel over
it.

I don't have any issues with my Xbox except on rare occasions, it's loud and the S is suppose to be silent.
