Console Problems

[Mikan Cyclone]

Okay, here's the deal.  I decide to continue my friendly game of Mass Effect, hoping to get more inspiration from it for the book I'm writing on the First Contact War (And to beat the Geth's cybernetic asses again) when my Intercooler decides to make a bad noise.  The things loud, but this sounds like a shearing or grinding noise, so I unplug the intercooler, unplug it a couple times, and jsut leave it off.  The 360 then starts making noise, and then when I'm about near the Krogan statue on the citadel, it stops making sounds.  I was curious, and the back of the console was VERY hot.  So I saved my game and turned it off.  Next thing I know, when I turn it back on again, the disc is jammed in there, and the disc tray won't close.  By this I mean I hit the button, it closes, and then it opens back up again.  Any tips to fix?  Microsoft is going to have me send it back, but that takes about a month in all, and with Christmas coming like...now, I won't be able to play all the fancy goodies.  Any advice at all?
