There are a few ways that people say you can fix the "3 Red Light" or "Ring Of Death" error. Most of them are wrong. Some of them can cause serious damage to your unit.
First let me start off by saying Xbox 360s and even Computer for that matter DO NOT LIKE HEAT. That is why they have fans, and heat sinks to distribute heat out. Go to any CPU vendor website and they will tell you that Severe Heat to a CPU will cause permanent damage to the processors.
Be wary of the Xbox 360 Red Lights "Towel Trick" I’ve cooked a console doing that. You may not think you are, but trust me the Towel trick breaks consoles. After doing it a few times, you get more and more lockups, until finally the console freezes non stop.
