3 redlights after flashing bQ with iprep, is this bad flash?

I have BenQ and was using ixtreme 1.61, yesterday i tried to flash ixtreme LT v1.1 using iprep 0.12.2.1 and while I was just trying to get it work I got 3 redlights, at that time I was not beyond the process of selecting cdrom in iprep, the step after MTK vendor, I got one sata and 2 ide detected but none of them worked.

I then flashed with an old floppy that had ixtreme 1.61 and the 3 redlights vanished.

I then made LT v1.1 floppy based on iprep 006, by replacing the benq-cfw.bin with the LT v1.1 bin and also deleted the files from folder backups.
I then dumped the image and flashed, everything went fine and I hit 4 banks for both processes.

Once I connected xbox360 to TV it started freezing and now the 3 redlights lit after 5-10 seconds and the xbox don’t show any TV signal, I can however hear the cdrom spinning.
I have again tried to flash by using ixtreme 1.41 and 1.61 floppies, when the xbox gives 3 redlights the process of erasing and writing flashrom completes successfully.

Is the 3 red light related to bad dvddrive?
Is my cdrom bricked?
Is my Xbox bricked?
I have backup of original rom will that help?

I have tried disconnecting and reconnection power supply, power supply is green even when xbox is flashing red.

What can I do to resolve the issue, any help will be appreciated

sometimes it boots no redlights but the screen is blurred and the xbox freezes after some minutes.

I have flashed with LT v 1.1 it says all the time opentray and althoug the cdrom spins. Dont really know if flashing again with JF resolve the problem as it is also giving me freezes and bad piture.
I have error 0102.

0102 is GPU related seems like it is just bad timing to get the RROD.

Yep I think its just really bad timing you got the RROD.

However, Do you have the correct DVD Key?

I have the original backup so i'll guess the key should be there. I'm also getting open tray error with LT 11, I read on some forums that LT 11 can not always play backup kopies. I use verbatim DVDs.

Does do that with both copies and originals or just copies? If so your lasers probably dieing.

It can play originals and som backups but not all, I think this problem is related to LT 1.1.
Now its been working whole day just that the picture is blurred and flickering with bad colors.
Can the "overheating fix" or inserting new stuff between heatsink can help?
Or I just can press the GPU so it will fall in the place?
