That's what my 3rd xbox did shortly before it threw up the 3 red lights and I sent it back to MS for repair. The HD trick is worth a try, although it usually throws up a black screen with an error number displayed if that's the problem.

Thats just what mine did a couple of weeks ago before bying altogether.
Probably not what you want to hear, but if its less than a year old you might want to take it back to the shop for a new one.

Careful of those coolers. There have been a few reports of them drawing too much current and burning out the power supply (or the back of the 360).

If you want a cooler, this one is a better option:
http://play.com/Games/Xbox360/4-/327...g/Product.html
Powered by USB rather than direct from the PSU. Provides extra USB ports, some extra outputs and allows you to use a standard VGA/component cable rather than the official 360 cables.
