Title: Xbox is dying :( (I think)
Post by: The Sceneman on December 22, 2010, 03:56:43 PM: yeah its the trillionth one of these threads but fuck it

It's like losing a loved one. Your beloved companion you spend hours with daily is kicking the bucket, slowly but surely.

Or is it? Basically it just freezes then if I restart it comes up with "E71" error and one flashing red light. If I reattach everything it seems to work again for some reason? Maybe I should just try duct taping the AV plug into the back?

It would freeze whenever I turned it on or just boot me straight to the E71 error screen. After a couple weeks of this, I just assumed my system was dead, so I unplugged it and put it on a shelf for a few months. Then in October or so, right before I was going to send it in for repair, I figured I'd hook it back up and see if it works... and it did. And it's still working. In fact, it hasn't locked up or given me an error screen a single time since I hooked it back up.

It does have a few quirks (Ketsui won't play if it's installed, and Strike Witches randomly kicks me back to the dashboard if it's installed), but for a system that is now undead, I guess I can live with it.
