The basic process for fixing the Xbox 360 e74 error involves removing
the external panels of your console's case, opening up the system
itself, then locating the video scaler chip on the motherboard. The
cause of the red lights and the e74 code is that overheating leads to
expanding and contracting of the motherboard, and because of this, the
scaler chip can actually come loose. Therefore, to fix your console it
must be reattached.

360 quickly, easily and permanently.

format, and don't cost more than the price of a couple of bargain bin
games. It's definitely worth the small investment to be able to fix
your console yourself- not only will you feel a big sense of
accomplishment in your work, but you will also have saved yourself
