I just bought a 360...brought it home and connected it to xbox live....as soon as My live was updated the system began to restart and then went to an error screen...said

Error
E 71


So...I called customer support and they said it was a faulty xbox.....so I just exchanged it and the same thing happened!!!

So I called scustomer support again and they said that it just started happening and it must be a problem with the update...Anyways just weanted to post this ....If you just bought a 360....wait to do the update or call xbox customer support before you update your xbox live!

I bought my 360 on the 27th of last month. I did the update and nothing went wrong. So I'm not sure...

I've had mine since launch and it's still ticking.

Bad luck for you I suppose.

260? No wonder your update isn't working, you're 100 xbox versions behind! You need to upgrade to a 360! lol

But seriously, that update is cool, you can now stream video from your computer WITHOUT media center! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Yep.

Funny thing, I know a guy who just got his 360 back from the repair center yesterday, and then the update bricked it.

Meaning, Microsoft gave him a system with hacked firmware.
