This guide was perfect. Had a lot of trouble getting the CPU bracket back on, but thank you for this video breakdown.

Hi, what if your xbox already overheated? I had my xbox by the window and I think it fried my xbox (after it already fried 1 TB Seagate Expansion SSD card, sucks I know).

Now my xbox says it needs to update a 996 mb update, and when it's done with step 2, verifying the Xbox, it needs to restart and doesn't restart.

Does anybody know what piece I will need to replace to fix that?

Thank you.
