red ring of death
Chamagol asked:


I had the 1 red ring and e74 message and I tried the towel trick and got the red rings of death error. I tried the towel trick again and it work for 2 days. I got the red rings of death again so I tried the towel trick again. It didn’t work. 3 days later I tried again and now, it works on and off and only for a couple of minutes. Any suggestions to fix my problem?

    The only thing I can think of is just to email microsoft about it and mail your 360 to them.

    DONT send it back first wrap it in 3 or 4 towels and leave it on for 10-15 mins this will heat the solder in it and the chip will move slightly just the 1 though it will not break when u take towels off leave it to cool and turn it off at the mains once it is working again you can thank me and give me best answer
