Xbox 360 E68 - 1 Red Light Error Fix

[xImShadyx]

all i did to fix my e68 was take out the hard drive and ut it back in (with out banging on it) thumbs up so nobady breaks their hard drive 

[SunbeltRyders]

Ouch, you know pounding a hard disk on the floor causes permanent data loss and eventually leads to total hard drive failure right? No wonder you're getting so many e68 errors

[ohiostateortman]

U rock u r the best u saved my life I thought it was gonna be broke forever but I watched ur video and saved my life thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!

[iambeastLol]

When I put my hdd in it rattles and comes up with e68

But when I remove the hdd and turn it back on it works? Please help

I've tried hitting blowing everything it just doesn't work

[stephen123453]

i tired but my xbox wont even respond i flipped th hd to tv then back to hd and it didnt reset or nothing it just stayed on e68 then i took out the hard drive and it still didnt do anything only thing that it responds to is on/off button and power cord unpluging

[ColorTeVe]

[babydaramis]

MINE HAS BEEN LIKE RIGGED TO FIT ONLY A HDMI CORD IN WHERE THE AV CABLES ARE MEANT TO BE. WHEN I TRY TO TURN IT ON, IT DOES THE HALF-WAY INTRO ON THE LIGHTS, ABRUPTLY STOPS AND HITS A LOWER-RIGHT QUADRANT LIGHT ON ME. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!!!!

[armedzombieslayer]

Thx man you got my xbox fixed by your tips

[GGAsniping]

Hard drive way worked :D MONTAGES :D :D :D

[TheSmartguy187]

it didnt work for me -____-

[BigBirdBravo21]

Banging the hard drive actually worked!!! Thanks!!!!!

[DavidXBL2000]

Thank You so much. I fixed by doing the banging the hard drive and blowing into it

[XxShOtSfRoMaBoV3xX]

my thing is one red light flashing and says E76 whats does that mean

[pitterpup]

PUT YOUR XBOX IN THE FREEZER FOR ABOUT 30 TO 40 SECONDS

[Mrgumstick]

Thank you man you are my best friend. I will masterbate to this video every night. (not really but you get it). I just had to shake it.

[southparkfan200]

fuck ive tried every solution and it dosent fucking work! i dropped my fucking hard drive has that got anything to do with it?

[CMxCRAzYMODz]

clearly your a fucking retard it has nothing to do witht he 1st way? its because of the hard drive thats what E68 Error means all you have to do is eaither try this fuck heads Wrong Ways Or Simpley call 1-800-4MY-XBOX

My hard drive clicks everytime i turn it on with the hdd in it.

[D3ADLYORK3R]

@CMxCRAzYMODz Yea im a fucking retard? sick dude. No shit is a fucking hard drive error you dip shit why else would i take my time to make a video to try to help people who cant afford to by a new hard drive. Maybe just maybe in your perfect world everyone who owns an xbox has an unlimited warranty, but here in the real world, They expire in a year. So bite me asshole, oh and by the way, it must make you feel great calling a 13 year-old a fucking retard.

[M200Snipes]

@D3ADLYORK3R makes me feel pretty good

[Tylerstoessel]

@CMxCRAzYMODz Its not ard drive either its a solder joint

[MaGiiCxSniPeZz]

what do i do if not even that appears

[beasterdanu]

HOLY SHIT IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[marcibest]

Ah so you've solved a lot ... when you do it again the disk will die completely and you lose all your data ... I just got the error and I do a ghost on the computer meanwhile... then I will see how to do

[alucard123death]

Lol... best solution blow in the port and then hit it and shake it and it should work i mean i did that and it worked... xD

[Dice3000]

what about hitting the hdd with a hammer ? I heard that it works too

[dcom94]

i got E71?!?

[DChew202]

another way is to play any recently released game (after 2007) and it updates

[xReZoTiiCViiRuSx]

worked for me dude! thankx i subbed.

[D3ADLYORK3R]

Wow your a royal fuck aren't ya? I was fucking 14 at the time you ass clown, why the fuck would I fake E-68 message?

[xVoMiNaTiOn]

wtf dude i doubt u had it anyway so why didnt u even show us that u had one dumbass

[jg26phi]

[simpsons2192]

[miniman3369]

[elias61000]

if you get the 1 red ring will the xbox start diffrent pleas mesig back

[GameTutsModding]

That resets it for you? No, it finds another source for the boot files. The console has a 378 MB cache in it that contains your backup kernel and other information.

[MoDxMW2]

doesnt work, i use hdmi >_> FUCK YOU MICROSOFT!

[earlzie23]

just go to futureshop... buy a new one then return your old a month later

[chicagosoftcor3]

Can't believe it worked! Cheers

[PetGussyane1]

[gazisme2007]

yo it wrked thanks

[siryay123]

the permanent one actually worked thanks man

[IPhoneCustomizer]

does this work for the E 74 ?

[legozombies8665]

All these are only temporary fixes

[MrSnozzz]

all this does is makes the xbox 360 overlook partition 1 and 2 and go straight to 3 there for you will not have the backwards compatability and another thing is you have to do this everytime. not much of a fix.... trust me i am a computer guru for the united states airforce and i have not yet been able to find a fix and i know everything there is to know about this sort of stuff so ur best bet is to buy a new hdd or mod a scorpio.

[bradypem]

well wen i put my hard driv in my xbox it startes making this loud beeing noise but wen i dont hav the hard drived in it dosnt . o and wen teh hard drives in aftr a minute or 2 of loud beeping it gives me e68. can someone tell me wat to do or watz hapening?

[ChillaKilla619]

[warrior4life15]

hey will this work for sure ??????

[rubelakahamza]

does this work for the ARCADE XBOX??

[XohshitztonysbackX]

yes but this error means that something is unplugged or something wrong with your harddrive... I unplugged and replugged everything and it went away. It's that av plug(from the video) that keeps coming off for some strange reason.

[SteezerZimmer]

thanks so much man it worked wonders

[GoHabs13]

omfg dood i love you

not really im not gay

you saved my day

so much

[06rawjac]

[coolL9457]

guys, i had the RROD of like a few months without tuching it, to 1 light "This" but i cant do much more... help! im not gnna giv bill gates £140 for somthing that he probably wantedto soon happen!

[randomboys123456789]

Look, everyone who has watched this video before you try all this fancy stuff and taking your xbox apart. first all you need to do is unplug it and leave it for a while.

Try it before you take it apart

[SHAKExNxBAKEx5]

mine got e68 and all i did was delete a corrupted file off my hardrive

[dumbclip345]

i just noticed something xboxs with the silver tray covers get errors. conspiracy?

[yoyojamesinthehouse]

yup

[austin32m]

no i have went through 2 arcades with e74 errors

[rsty87ma]

lol my suggestion to fix this problem get yourself a ps3

[leperkuan]

@rsty87ma, my buddy has been through 3 PS3's and i had an xbox360 since they came out up until a month ago... only reason i got rid of it was because it was banned. ?  wise word to all DONT SHAKE YOUR HARD DRIVE! and blow the dust out of your xbox.

[Thunderbird766]

shake it? are u fucking retarted? A hard drive contains movable parts and has a label on it saying DO NOT SHAKE. that will mess up your HDD even more

[0o0ModdingVidz0o0]

@CalumGraves

i have the same problem

everything i try it does not work

[CalumGraves]

itd a problem on your hardrive. basicly you need a new hardrive. im sorry to say you will lose all your saved data. like me. i have had to start all my games again

[Thunderbird766]

nope, your savedata syncs with Xbox live aswell as your achievments

[xboxlivebro]

@CalumGraves ya its that stupid, acording to my family that sent a message to microsoft, that we are going to get another 360, for free

[xboxlivebro]

@0o0ModdingVidz0o0 your also not the only 1

[0o0ModdingVidz0o0]

@xboxlivebro

i drop my xbox hdd

[xboxlivebro]

@0o0ModdingVidz0o0 i hit it a couple of times with the xbox controller when playing some of the games

[0o0ModdingVidz0o0]

lol

everything i try does not work

i even took apart my Hdd

and try it and nothing happen

[xboxlivebro]

@0o0ModdingVidz0o0 ya you rather gotta get it fixed by microsoft (it will never happen) or get a new hdd

[drblwitt]

just turn your xbox off and wiggle the hard drive a bit and hope it works again

[Shinigami516]

LOL THIS SHIT WORKS HAHAHAHAHA THANKS

[calliemorris]

way easyer then taking your xbox apart.. that method is golden.

[MrJordan929]

soo wat if it is

[deathmonkey12x]

you dident show us that you had e 68 so its fake

[GTAplayer18]

The 2nd fix aint permenent!!

[kjtyskater]

wat do u do if u dont have the switch

[kjtyskater]

yea i really want 2 no how 2 fix it i have towels on it now 2 see if that works

[UrbanM101]

when i put my HDD in it had a slant on it

should this be?

[demonsora]

I use a HDMI and i tried pulling it out but it didnt work. The xbox is also standing vertically. I have the NXE and its an Elite

[alexphazon]

i used HDMI and i simply removed the HDD and put it back and it worked on the first try. you don't really need to shake or hit it...

[freakwatcher1]

i did that too

[1Headrock]

ok i reset it like u said got the red light off but the next time i turned it on it came back

[D3ADLYORK3R]

yea i know... i dont know what 2 do for mine either

[brandoncarter22]

does e68 come back? mine did that yersterday and it works now. and i really dont want it to come back

[D3ADLYORK3R]

funny story about that.... i actually just got it back 2 days ago... i need 2 buy a new hard drive now because nothing is working

[supraxz]

Sadly no matter what i do it just wont fucking work

no e 68= no data

e68= dont work

[iDaniel1996]

Hey dude, where'd you get that cable with the HDTV and TV switch? I don't have that. I have a Xbox Arcade. Does it not come with it or something?

[dynamikgroup]

worked me first time, thanks alot for the tip on the fix.. who knew something so simple would be the fix

[Shreder2100]

lol

[brawlmaster32]

thanks man. this actualli worked on mine. thanks alot. rating this 5 stars and subscribe 2 u!

[pboogiephantom]

it dindt work i have to buy another fucking harddrive im so fucking tire that my xbox is allways malfuctioning fuck

[bloodlust1000]

lol xD

[bloodlust1000]

you know it also helps if you xbox is standing up instead of being on its side

[D3ADLYORK3R]

yea u might have wanted 2 look down before u posted that cause i said that like 3 weeks ago! but thanx anyway man

[zweb620]

dude take ur xbox of the carpet it will fry. put it on a stand or table

[nightslayer63]

i didnt work what do i do

[fcabballer24]

i think the shaking the hard drive and banging it around is the one that actually worked for me. I have tried everything else and that is the only one that has worked

[D3ADLYORK3R]

new update on it. instead of playing with your xbox side ways, put it straight up and down and it works perfect and i dont have 2 do anything

[FamousBaller08]

I just got this Today and nothing will work!?

[D3ADLYORK3R]

I always have 2 turn my xbox controller on and then do the switch in the back because i always look for the icon that lets me know the controller is hooked up, when i see that icon i know that my xbox will work!

[D3ADLYORK3R]

Temp on the switch but the hard drive thing i did is forever

[epiphoneles111]

is this temporarly or forever

[Shreder2100]

temporary
