The E74 error happens because the scaler chip burns out which deals with the display to fix it all you need to do is stop the heat build up, you can do this yourself or send it in for repair

The E74 error is a general system failure. The CPU and or GPU processor chips have come unseated due to overheating and mothrboard flex issues. The motherboard will need to be reflowed by a service technician. Good luck!

My xbox has E74 what do i do about getting it fixed, however it only shows one red ring in the bottom right of the circle when it is turned on, not three

The Error 74 means that your 360 is experiencing hardware failure. Only one red light should show up. You should send you 360 to Microsoft for a repair. If you are not under warranty you could fix it yourself, by doing the X clamp repair. But by opening your 360 it will void your warranty so be careful.

Hope this helps

E-74 red light on bottom right corner

sounds like the red ring of death, contact xbox as they give u a 3 year warranty on this, they will pick it up and return it fixed.

When i turn my xbox 360 on one light in the bottem right corner flash red and it reads E 74 error but when i unplug the xbox from the t.v it doesnt flash red, does this mean we need a new wire

one red light means the video card is dead not the cord and unfortunately cannot be fixed and to make it worse this error is not covered by warranty, if you want it under warranty tel microsoft wen you ring that it has 3 red flashing lights (RROD) not 1 as this error is covered by warranty
