E 71 Error

Does anyone know what the E 71 Error means. After it came up My 360 wouldn't even boot up, it just stayed a blank screen or it would come up to some error page, that i guess you could compare that the the blue screen of death for the pc.

Firstly, always Google for stuff like this.

This' what I found

E71: possibly a dashboard update error, Check below in the "Console Reset Codes" for instructions. If that does not work there is no other solution and the console must be sent back to MS for repair.

And here's the console reset:

Clear Any Failed system updates that cause the console to error.
With the console off, press and hold the sync up button (the small white one)
While holding the sync button press the power button to turn on the console
Continue to hold the sync button until the Console has booted up completely.
During the boot process the console should clear any failed updates, allowing you to use it normally.Although to be honest, I'm not too sure if that'll work. You might just have to bite the bullet and call the dreaded number to request a coffin.

Thanks man, I never thought about googleing it. But I have already called xbox, and when he was doing all of the bull crap that you have to go through with it, it wouldnt even boot up...lol....so they are shipping me a replacement. but i havent had a lot of luck with replacements lately since this would make my 5th replacement console in a month and a half.
