Xbox Overheating

I'm sure this is the wrong thread, but with everyone here still playing on the 360 I thought someone might have gone through something similar. Got the itch to play some NCAA 14, pulled the old 360 out of the closet, plugged it in, fired it up. Played for about 2 hours, starting a new dynasty with Iowa State, sit down to play my first game and about 4 plays in, Xbox clicks off and gives me 2 red lights on left side. From then on, I could barely get my xbox to stay on for 1 minute, no gameplay before it did the same thing. Did some research found out this was an overheating issue and tried to fix it. Disassembled the box, cleared out a lot of dust from the mother board and cooling mechanisms, reassembled. Now we are back to where we were. I can run the thing, stay on the homepage and it will work for hours, but once I actually try to start playing a game it clicks off with the 2 red lights soon there after. Anyone had similar problems, no of any fixes?
