Yah, I know E73 is "unfixable" but some ppl have had success w/ X clamp fix. I took my chances and now the xbox boots up, fan stops spinning, and no audio/video is displayed w/ a flashing light.

Any suggestions?

sum1 already had stevedawg and stevedawg85 is longer than 10 chars :(

Press power button, console turns on with bottom right light flashing red. E73 error displayed on TV. 5 seconds later, fans shutoff, video goes black, and two left lights flashing red. I leave it on to "bake" the 360, but it doesn't heat up.

The error code I receive is 0011.

I just tightened the ef!!! out of the screw and now I get the screen to stay at e73 with 1021 error

I heard about someone fixing this problem with a heatgun, if I find the thread I will post it.

EDIT: I found the thread: http://forums.afterdawn.com/t.cfm/f-152/_help_error_73-791599/
That's an extremly dodgy way of fixing it though. It's probably better just to get someone to use a proper reflow machine to fix it.
