      The rumor seems to be that M$ have changed the error reporting so that in some cases you get an E74 error instead of the RROD. I'm not preaching that as fact but, as I said, rumor.

      The cure is the same in both cases. Either send it back as cunny sez, or try the x-clamp fix. I have seen this fix work on an E74 machine, so it is do-able.
