hi there, i got the same prob. i cannot play game using component cable but i still can use normal cable( red,yellow and white). there no flashing light on the console and also no error code display on the sceen. what going on with my console? some said it because of ana chip. who can fix it and roughly how much

well, if you can find a ana chip (roughly cost RM 3XX) and ask a technician to solder it back (which cost RM 1XX) I'm guessing you have to think first before even want to repair it.

Plus there is no guarantee that the newly accepted ana chip will work on your xbox 360.

sounds like a really bad deal. what's the name of this shop?

Rm500 to repair... very smart... .... they just do X-Clamp that all... that why.. buy ori if got prob just send to singapore.... (only cost Rm350.00)...

thanks...so what ur suggestion djinn?

i also think the same...but nevermind..i planning to buy a ps3 after this...

X-Clamp method costs about $5. So $5x3.8 = RM19 .

Ah... I'm still waiting from Djinn about my 360... so many units are sent to him... and now I am drawn to the dark side of... chatting online...

I really miss Burnout now... lol...

So many units?? 10 units?? Ur 360???

me still asking around if anybody want to go down singapore see can go claim warranty or not..

cause 1 rod they don't do "claims"

because is not fall under the category of "3RROD"

Okay okay...

please anyone help me tell at where can I repair error 74?

...Then why all of my friend recommend me to buy falcon XBOX360 instead??????? The Falcon ver. is better than old Zephyr version of elites or even older model la.....even if it cannot 100% eliminate the 3RRoD problem....

All my friend that plays PS3 keep telling me how many times their PS3 hitted with disc read problem.....at least 2 of my friend sent their machine for repair due to the lens prob (one of them even get it twice.... )and they said they're not playing anything other than game disc........ am I conned?????

But frankly speak I buy for games not for console.....So i don care lah

Well....im skeptical at 1st but now I'm one hell of a happy Falcon Xbox360 owner. the console will not simply heat up even after 4~5 hrs of GoA + HALO3. Playing online with the world & folks i know is super fun mann!!! I'll wait until the PS3 Home is up to get it. I'm obsessed to good online service. I'll also consider the Wii if Friend code is no longer needed. hahahaha!

and I'm leaving my xbox360 online for abt 2 weeks already since my last off. to download all those demo on a stupid max-shit line.

Now I'm wishing that x360 hv something like WiiConnect24. the standby mode still draw big power consumption.

to HairyLGS,

for the ANA chip.... i know a small shop at Sg Wang with a techies that can even fix machine with board in really bad shape (after so many attempt to fix the machine) but of course....with heavy price tag...RM600 for such machine.

He solved my friend's 3RRoD problem with no repeated call after 1+ year. But I'm not surethe reputation of the shop...though....

You might wanna visit him before decide to repair, the shop is at IT floor. corner shop opposite to a cyber cafe. PM me if you want the phone no.

and yeah snake, i did it again! edited

Djinn told me to claim warranty from Microsoft Singapore only cost under RM300 , if the console 3rod...i mean GamersHideout will send the unit to SG.

Hey navigator... thanks for the offer... but already I sold off my 1ROD Unit to someone else... I think he needs it more than I do... will pass the message to him.

I own a PS3 now... and so far, no problems. I did a leverage check on whether I should stay on with Xbox 360 or buy a PS3 instead. And my choice was based upon what I found out so far from other owners around the world and friends who owns them. I know there are many good games in 360 but then... what make me buy a PS3 now is my own instinct and the right investment in times of need and today's situation climate that's happening to us all makes me get a PS3.

This is an opinion of my own and I don't want to say either consoles of the pros and cons. All I can say is after using my 360 for more than a year and it runs very strong until I hit System Error E 74 and did my own research, I make a choice based upon the facts I gather.

If anyone hit this problem as well, you can contribute here your opinions or answers here. Didn't know this thread is still alive.

How much you sold to him?

Congrats on your PS3 purchase. it's unfortunate the xbox LIVE will lose one gamers. haha

RM 300 as a bundle Dead or Alive Holiday Pack.

Yes, I do feel sad about leaving LIVE... do feel little regret but I can start all over again...

if mine dies as well im gonna get a ps3. hope it doesn't tho. cuz its been great. feel sorry for you hairy. But at least you have the ps3 exclusives to fill your time. and blu ray movies wooh!!

This "3rod" on Xbox 360. How come a Xbox360 can get affected by it? Is it a virus or something?
