My xbox is pretty heavily modded, but was working fine for a while. It ran a bit hot, but not hot enough to cause it to overheat and turn off. The other day I had it running and was playing a game when it just shut off. I figured it had overheated, but now it gives me nothing when I try to power it up. I don't see what could have changed while I was playing...it was working fine, now it won't work at all. Any idea what could have caused something like this? What are the common things to check for to locate where the problem could be occuring?
Thanks for the help.

Check the PSU, if it's a v1.0 xbox, then you couldv'e gotten stuck with the shitty foxlink PSU's which have horrible power cord connections. Also make sure that if you have the Replacement power cord, that you didn't pop the fuse on it.

It was just plugged into the wall, no surge protector. The xbox is a version 1.6. How do I determine if I've popped the fuse/what do I need to do to replace it? Thanks.
