Sounds like the console is overheating.
Seek technical support for the XBOX 360, since it is probably a hardware issue.
We do not have technical knowledge enough to tell you how to look inside of the device.

I know the thing says solved, but I have to chime in on some experience here.
Mine did this a few times, and I can say for a fact it wasn't overheating.
Make sure your console is on a level, steady surface, and preferably horizontal (I know it can stand vertical, but balance is worse). Then...just don't jar it. At all.
A lot of the disc drives, I've discovered, go haywire and spin the discs out of control if the machine is jarred at all, and every now and then they do so if the machine is tilted (Though I admit from a forced experience this is possible to do without damage).
So, just keep it in a steady place and don't jar it, or kick it, or do anything else that could jar the disc in the tray.
This only applies if the disc is spinning, though. If you're on the main menu and the disc is stopped in the tray, by all means, let an elephant dance around it...just don't step on it.
This worked for me, and a couple of friends who had the same issues.
