E68 is a hard drive power error. I had a similar problem with my xbox when I got it first. Try removing the hard drive and turning it on. If it starts without the HD the xbox is fine but you might need to get a new hard drive.

well this seems to work for most people. make sure theres no tiny objects as plastic blocking the connection to the hard drive and connectors.

other posters comment.

Guys I had the same problem two days ago, I googled it and turns out this problem is caused by the hard drive. Its either corrupted or misplaced. Mine was misplaced from the back so all I did was put it back in its correct place ( you can know that its placed correctly when it clicks from the front and behind of the hard drive). So don't panic if you get this error its no big deal
