Connecting to play games !!! Dashboard connected though?

So I experienced this for a little bit last night before going to bed. I was playing halo 5 and everything good when my 16 month old daughter walks in the living room and cuts off my xbox. I come back to turn it on like 10 minutes later and everything comes
up fine. I get back on and start playing madden 16 and the rest of the night the number of friends I had online was the same even to now. I was going to get on destiny last night right before bed and press A to start the game up and throws me error code for
not being connected to xbox live. I was like ok I will just go to bed should be good in the morning, nope. It won't let me play halo 5 online like I was yesterday or let me get online for any game I have but yet the dashboard is connected just like if I were
connected to xbox live. Someone please help me ASAP??!!!!!

Issues connecting my 360 to a monitor via VGA cable with the new dashboard update

Hi everyone:

I have an older XBox 360, bought in around 2007, that I've been always playing with my friend via system link connected to my computer's monitor via a VGA cable. Like this one: damn can't post links. Annoying site!

So fast forward to now -- I haven't played it for over a year -- but now my buddy was in town, we got the Saints Row 3 game and decided to play again. Right before playing the console said that I needed an update. So we went through a rigmarole of connecting it via ethernet cable, then downloaded and installed something after which the dashboard looked totally new -- like those Windows 8 computers now. I should say that due to the layout of my apartment, I had to connect this Xbox to my TV fist via RCA cable to download and install the dashboard update.

OK. So, now when I try to connect this 360 to my monitor using the VGA cable, the monitor stays dark as if nothing is connected to it but the xbox itself seems to work (I can hear the sounds of the loading dashboard and I can click joystick too.) I also tested the monitor. If I connect my computer via a VGA port it seems to work just fine. We also tested my friend's xbox (also with the latest dashboard update) to connect via the VGA cable and the same thing -- dark screen as if nothing is connected to it. Note also that both xboxes work if connected to a TV with an RCA cable.

So what is up with this VGA connection? And why doesn't it work anymore?

PS. I'm using the exact same hardware -- I know it worked before -- the only difference is that dashboard update. Is there any way to roll it back? It is very frustrating!!!

 

NVM hard reset set it all back to norm thanks anyway!!
