Xbox 360 E74 Error

[Ace of Spades]

For the last few days now starting my 360 from a cold start when it hasnt been used for abit (few days or from last night) doesnt connect to the TV. Im using the 5 plug lead that came with the premium pack.

When i first start it up all the green lights rotate but nothing appears on the TV, the TV still has a blue background. When i restart it power off/on it comes up with the E74 error contact support. Do another power off/on it works!? Ive looked this up and its something to do with the av cable or encoder chip.

Would i be able to get a replacement from the shop? bought it from one of the large electrical suppliers 7/12/06 or do i contact microsoft.

At the minute i dont have another TV to try it out until my samsung comes. The current TV is Toshiba 32" 32WLT66 Freeview HD Ready LCD TV.

Its not the TV.

My original 360 crashed regularly, when I got this code it was the last thing my 360 was capable of doing. I would take it back to the store if I were you. They will have to refund you as it is faulty.
