Maybe its getting to hot?? try and blow its out trough to hols in the side.. xbox's tent to collect dust maybe the airflow is ubstructed by the dust..

The freezing may be due to overheating. How is your Xbox stored?

EDIT: sWo0p360 beat me to it. Damn you!! :D

its lieing down and in a open space but i dont think its from overheating because it was of all night...

If it's lying down on a carpeted material, or a dusty area, give the area a good clean out. Blow inside the console to get rid of any dust.

If that don't help, the next step's obvious...

Do you have it plugged into a power or surge bar? If so try plugging it directly into the wall. Microsoft recommends this and if you've read the instruction booklet it's stated in that also. Reason being is because the big brick has a min surge protector built into it. Hooking it through a surge protector is like having it through twice before it hits the 360.

Good thing Microsoft just extended the manufacture warranty to 3 years.
