I've been given this Xbox 360 (as well as an old Xbox mentioned in another thread) to repair. I'm pretty good usually but these Xbox things have me stumped. The problem is that when I switch it on I get one flashing quadrant, the bottom right one if it is stood upright. On the screen I have "Error 73".
A quick google search comes up with this:
E73: I/O Hardware Error - Couldn't calibrate HSIO Bus from edram: this error is likely caused by a problem with the Ethernet port or supporting control devices.
Now I don't actually have a controller for it so it may be this but I'll get one of those later and if it isn't that does anyone have any suggestions? I don't think sending it to Microsoft is an option.
Getting the case off these things is also very hard. I managed it, only to find that I don't have any tools that will take all of the screws off. Damn you, Xbox!
