Yes, its 1 RROD, but it happens like 5 out of 10 starts. And I afraid that it will eventually goes to the full-fledged 3 RROD

Actually 1 RROD and 3 RROD almost is the same effect (Except for Error 69 69 and 71, Which is repairable by changing the hdd or update the dashboard)

Anyone can help? When i boot my xbox everything goes fine and i can play games for hours. But its just that, there are texture glitch where i can see white dots appear and disappear on the screen which is distracting like an oldies film from the 50s.

Iam using a falcon, havent really checked the wires/cables behind.

Microsoft vs angry customers

where are sold any modded xclamp n heat sink for my xbox?
i doesn't seen any xclamp for my xbox..

Hi Guys,

My 360 has finally gone to the dark side, giving me the 1 red light and e74. Decided that I will take matters into my own hands and fix this thing myself. Will be doing everything in the guide on page 1 [thanks Guardian].

Will tell you guys how it will turn out. Oh, i was also thinking of adding 2 fans on the side to suck additional air into the 360 and another 2 fans on the back to help the internal fan suck out hot air. Only problem now is how to power these fans... hmmm..

PS: When i said 2 fans on the side, i meant the grey mesh of the 360 that does not have the HDD. As in, I have my 360 placed in a horizontal position.

Hi

Excellent stuff Gurdian. I am going to try this. How long did your fix last? Is it still going? more than a year after?

Hope I can get at least a few months out of it.....

At last, mine had kicked the bucket. 3 months after the graphic problem

Well, fortunately my boss gave me CNY bonus this month. Hope the new one will last longer with things learned from the first console

halo

i got 3ROD 0001..

can anyone explain it for me in english? is it fixable?

Double Check your Power Supply . This Error is a Power Supply Error. Check your Cables and Power socket are intact.

power supply as in the outer power socket + power brick? i try to reattach many time, still cant solve..
can u explain the correct way to make sure cables are intact?

So the guy for this fixing is actually just reapplying thermal paste is it? that is the cause of rrod right?

check your power brick, when it stays and standby mode is orange, try turn on your xbox 360. (make sure everything is in intact) if it turns red, you get a dead brick.

not really, 3 RROD can be cause by a lot of things.

i dont understnad why do you need the washers when there isnt 1 in the first place?

Guys! I need Arctic Silver 5 & ArctiCleaner urgently for my Xbox 360 due to error E74? Any idea where can I get them? Do Lowyat plaza sell it?

guys when the guy unscrew the screws for the heatsink screws(T9), what do you do with the screws when you want to put the casing back? do you need the screws again? How about the T10 screws also? is that needed to screw back?

Sometimes i see ppl drill holes. does this guide need?

Refering to the above top image bigger chip should be CPU and smaller is GPU, right?

How about the below image what chip is that? is it another CPU chip?

Both are CPU. Just that different version.

wahaha.. i feel so happy. After playing for 2 years without problem, thought it escapes 3RROD, but it came out suddenly when I boot my console..

Anyway, I got 3RROD but don't know how to check the error code. Can someone tell me? Thanks!

this thread really helps me a lot! as soon as i got home from work today i have tried to fix the e74.



already played it for 4 hours and so far it's still good
