Have you been looking for a guide all along to fix that Xbox of yours that has getting that annoying E74 error? I am going to provide you with my personal tips that I have used and what the outcomes were to them.
I had the E74 error and the red rings of death.
I was upset at the fact that it happened out of no where during my gameplay.
I certainly know that you were not happy with the outcome of your system and you may also be wondering why it happened.
If you follow these tips, you can get your Xbox console to work in a very short amount of time.
Regardless of the E74 error and the red rings of death, it can be fixed within the next hour or so.
1.
Did you ever hear about that sneaky little "towel trick" that everyone uses to "fix" the red rings of death also known as the RROD? I have personally used this little trick and I actually looked it up in YouTube and I encountered these simple steps to take to have my system back to "normal".
Outcome - It worked.
I actually got to play my console for another 2 weeks, and I got to play my favorite game of all time, Call of Duty! Yes only 2 weeks it worked though.
So for those who are only looking for a permanent solution to fix your Xbox, this would not be your best choice.
2.
Have you tried to disconnect everything from the console? Yea everything.
The power cable, the A/V cable and even the HD (hard drive) from the Xbox console.
Do it and leave it disconnected for one hour.
This is not a "guarantee" to work.
Outcome - It worked for many of my friends, especially for those who did not attempt the "towel trick".
It is just a better option and I always suggested it.
This will actually let the system cool down naturally unlike the towel trick.
3- Use a tutorial guide that will permanently show you how to get your Xbox back to work within one hour the most.
It will show you step by step on how to fix it.
Outcome - I have tried many guides, and honestly the only guide that really worked for me was the one I personally found through one of my friends.
He had suffered from that E74 message constantly.
The 3 red rings of death is what I had before.
