Kinect issues.

Hi Luoltidos,

Hey there, let's work through the Troubleshoot Issues with
Kinect Voice Commands guide. Also, is your console plugged directly into a wall socket as well?

Thank you!

hi iceman, I did restore factory settings but it did nothing and now it looks like I cant even get a replacement kinect due to the messed up replacement website.

Sorry to hear, seems there's a large number of reports of kinects dying for seemingly no reason. Anyways, pp, best of luck with the repair order, I'll be updating the thread I linked when mine finally ships if I remember to.

I have done everything on the list except restoring to default because I really don't want to have to wait ages for everything to reinstall and I am not sure if I will still have all my data. at this point I am not even sure whether its the Kinect or the
xbox, its almost like the kinect's drivers have got corrupted or something and as it only stopped working when xbox live went screwy I think that might have something to do with it.

Hi Radiant,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue with the Kinect. We recommend first to make sure the console is plugged directly into the wall. You can also try the

Kinect troubleshooting to see if this helps.

Thanks,

Brad
