e82 Error, still boots to xell.

[evox45]

Hey guys im hoping you can give me a hand here. I have a RGH slim which i did myself and have had 0 problems for 3 months up until today. I was just cruising the freestyle dashboard when out of no where my screen started going green. I turned it off and now when i restart i have the e82 error, but if i press the eject button i can still boot to xell... Has anyone encountered this? Or is my xbox done?

Update. I unplugged the fan and let the console overheat. waited 10 mins and now it boots. Obviously a RROD issue just like the old consoles. Here we go again...

Send it off for a reflow or reball. Maybe the thermal needs replacing.

RROD issue for sure, also you might try rerouting the wires

didnt you notice anything unusual with the console temps before you had this issue?
i ask this because i did several falcon MB and i always saying to look on the temps and if it too high let the console cool

I did not notice any heat issues. Its very well ventilated so i could not see the problem in that. Also How much does a reflow cost? Im just wondering because you can buy a brand new xbox for $129 now so is it even worth it?
