« on: November 27, 2009, 08:05:12 PM »
My xbox has been getting the e73 red ring (1 red light in the corner) and every time it does that i do the paper clip trick.And im thinking i fried my graphics card or something.Every time i turn my xbox on it shows up with a distorted picture.Not like static,like you dropped your phone in water,that look.   Anybody know whats the problem? Ill make a short vid of it later tonight. Thanks in advanced

Damn That Sucks, Is It Only Like That For MW2? Never Know It Could Be The Disk.
Your Best Bet Is To Call Microsoft.

u could fry ur xbox so it gets 3 red ring and send it off for repair for free, the best way i guess is to over heat it

I agree with Fatty.
But I've encountered this while fixing RROD xbox's, was caused by this piece loosening and or not having pressure on it, I solved the problem by holding pressure down on it while the xbox was turned on.


You could also try the penny trick.

Also, did you perform a red ring fix? If you did, you need more pressure on the GPU (Tighten the screws)
