    72 dpi is hard to blow up unless its a big 72 dpi image.

    I've had good results with the following technique...

    1) Use nearest neighbor to get it to 300 dpi, but don't force the size larger - ie: deselect Constrain Proportions

    2) Go up in incriments if 110% and use bicubic smoother. I don't know why this works, but it seems to do better than going up all in one shot.

    Set up a photoshop action for step 2 and it will go faster. Keep going up in incriments of 110% until you're at the preffered size.
