Here lately my xbox has been sounding like a lawnmower when i turn it on and when the fan comes on and all that. Is there anything that i could do about that. Because it's really annoying during games!

There's really only 2 moving parts in your XBOX. The hard drive and the fan. If it's making a sound like that it's probably one of the two.
Have you though of checking the fan? Blow some compressed air in there - or even open it if your warranty is up and adjust the fan so it it's hitting whatever it's hitting - it's only a plastic fan.
When it gets dirty on the inside it gets like that too. Clean with some compressed air or something. Did someone say this already?
this exact thing happened to my friend. If u have ever left it on for more then 2 days non stop or only like an hour break....lots of **** builds up...like they said...compressed air,,taking it apart will clarify the problem....though i dont reccomend it if u dont know what ur doing .
mine is really loud but i don't mind the fan but the drive is really loud and i can hear it reading the discs and stuff but i really don't care that much because i always tend to wreck stuff worse if i open them up.

and the cpu fan and the DVD drive
The Xbox is an inherently loud unit. Mine has been noisy from launch. As long as there is some other noise in the room, it gets drowned out. Forget about playing it when my wife is trying to snooze on the couch though.
Does it sound like gasoline or electric lawn mower.

Usta sound like a gasoline lawnmower. I did the compressed air thing and it doesn't do it anymore. Thanks guys.Originally posted by Snake Eyez-XBA
