Totall agree with nightsurge,

This is very old news, there is no "outbreak" of E74 problems, this VERY rare problem has always been there and always will be, it's only because people can't winge about the RROD problems now so they have to try and think of new ones,

 

Very sad.....

 

 Nope.

Falcon models that develop GPU problems that used to give a RROD get an E74 error instead. I'm sure it is less common, but the issue wasn't fixed when MS released the Falcon model.

 

My Falcon Elite just recently died with E74.  The display started breaking up then the flashing red light.  When it came back from MS there was a very bog standard letter with a box ticked saying my motherboard has been replaced.

Most failures are heat related, MS has SLOWLY improved its manufacturing process and reduced power needs and it looks like the new Jasper models could FINALLY put these issues to rest!

Also I checked my warranty status online after it was returned to me and it has only been extended by 6 months!! I will be complaining!
