    Black Screen Upon Start Up


    Within the last week, both Xboxes in my household have experienced a black screen upon turning the xbox on. One more than once.

    Upon start-up (from instant mode) the controller and console indicated they were on, but there was no picture. In both circumstances for both consoles, I hard reset and they started up just fine. This was Thursday. This evening, upon using my console for
    the first time today, it occurred again. I hard reset and it cycled through and worked just fine.

    Is this a known bug after updates occur, etc? I've seen that it's on the troubleshooting page so obviously it's something people experience but I'm wondering if it ever stops, or if there's something more to do besides hard resetting it every time.

    :)

    Internet explorer not working anymore!!

    I also have this problem.

    I receive the blue IE logo upon start up, but then the app loads indefinitely on a black screen with the spinning circle icon.

    Hi there Sick PRO2, thanks for reaching out.

    If you're on an Xbox One console and experiencing a
    blank screen
    upon start-up, please try those steps.

    Let us know if those help out.

    Hey, Radical!

    Sorry to see any issues you are running into. It sounds like your console just needs to be reset every few days. Having the console set to Instant On is like having your PC in sleep mode; once it starts to get sluggish, you normally restart your PC, right?
    Same situation.

    The best way to avoid this scenario, besides having it set to Energy Saving mode, is to make sure your console is plugged into the wall directly instead of any surge protectors or extension cables. If that doesn't help you out, you can give this

    troubleshooter page
    a shot. Most of it is really basic stuff, but test out the things you haven't done yet, then get back to us on how that works! Black Screen Upon Start Up :)
