    Can't play any games!


    Everytime I go to play a game it returns to home and an error message comes up saying it took too long to load. This has been happening since Sunday and I have no idea what's causing it. Strangely I can get onto Terraria but the leaderboards don't work and
    when I try to load a world the same thing happens.

    :)

  2. Can't Play any game

    can't play Mahjong or any game. I get " failed to create DirectX device". What does that mean and how can I fix this?

    Hello

    Have you already tried to perform a
    powercycle
    ? You can do this by holding down the powerbutton on your console for
    approx. 10 seconds untill it turns off.

    This will clear the cache and most likely fix the issue of the games not loading.

    Alternatively you can also make your console go to energy saving mode instead of
    Instant on. Putting it in the energy saving mode will clear the cache everytime you turn it off. This option however disables the ability to use the Xbox on command to start your Xbox. Also this will make the Xbox take a little longer to boot
    up (in total about 45 seconds).

    Here's how you can put your console in energy saving mode:

    1. Press the Home button
    2. Press the Menu button (right from the home button),and select
      Settings
    3. From here you can select Power & startup
    4. By clicking on Power mode you can select Energy saving from the dropdown menu
    By putting on energy saving you don't have to worry about manually performing a powercycle but it all comes down to personal preference

    Can't play any games !?

    Hello,

    Try resetting your console by holding the power button on the console for a full 10 seconds until it's completely shut down. Turn it on and try again. I've had to do this two times in a row to get it to work before, but it worked. Let us know if it helps.

    Depending on where you are based you might still be entitled to a Repair, replacement or refund by the retailer that sold it to you. Even if it's a more than a year old you should still get years of use out of it. In most cases upto 7 years for electronics.
    Check your consumer rights, its well worth it.
