  1. Original Xbox One turning off when playing a game


    When I start playing any game after 3 minutes or more my Xbox just completely turns off. This only happens with games nothing else. Netflix, YouTube and other apps work fine I can stay on for hours without any problem, I've been having this problem for like
    about a week. I recently realized that when I'm not signed in into a account "sometimes" not all the time, Instead of my Xbox turning off the game just crashes. This happened only like 2 times when I was signed into a account but ever since it's been turning
    off when signed in. I agree this problem is very weird, but I think what's causing this problem is the latest update that was released with changes with the
    Game DVR and Miscellaneous.This makes a lot more sense why this problem happening. Before the forums was updated I came across another person with the Xbox One S and he had the same exact problem as me and he only had his Xbox for a month. It's
    not my Xbox console nor my power supply I already proved it myself. I moved my Xbox somewhere else and still the same. I have done everything there is nothing else for me to try.

    :)

    How do I transfer progress from original Xbox one

    Hi

    As long as your original Xbox One was online and you have not changed any of the game save settings then all of your game saves will be held on the Microsoft servers and will be downloaded to your new console when you start playing a game when signed in
    with your profile.

    Using Cloud Game Saves | Xbox One

    As for your existing console that is turning off please see the troubleshooting guide below that may help.

    Hey Relayed -

    Sorry to hear about the issue. I'm not entirely sure what exact steps you've tried so far but definitely take a peek at the troubleshooting guide for when your >>Xbox
    One console shuts off unexpectedly
    <<. Does this issue happen in all games or only certain ones? If it's specific games, have you tried >>uninstalling<< the
    games, >>power cycling<< your console, and reinstalling to see if the issue persists?

    If none of the above steps provided help, another option to try is to >>factory reset<< your Xbox One
    console.

    Give it all a shot and let us know how it goes. Original Xbox One turning off when playing a game :)

  6. Thanks for clarifying, Relayed! Since this is only happening with games, do you happen to have your games on an external hard drive?

    If not, and you've completed a factory reset like Miss Bijoux suggested, then the console will need to be replaced. The fastest way to do that will be if you are still within the warranty period with the retailer you purchased it from. If you aren't, the
    second fastest way is by heading to your local Microsoft Store. And finally, if you don't have one near you, I suggest
    setting up a repair on our Device Support page. You will want to register your console to get your in warranty repair set up. If you run into issues setting that up,
    we suggest contacting us via phone or chat so that our agents there can assist you with setting up a repair.

    Let us know how it goes! We want to make sure you're fully resolved, and if your new console (if you happen to get one) is working appropriately. Thanks!

    XBOX One Turns off when playing games

    UPDATE

    I finally tried my friend's XBOX One Power Supply Unit with my console and it works just fine.. No more shut downs, so the issue was with my power supply unit.

    Now comes the most irritating part.

    I called the XBOX One India Support and explained to them the whole issue..after few irritating minutes of useless troubleshooting which the agent was doing..he accepted that the problem is with the Power Supply and puts me on hold..then gets back to me
    and tells me that the Power Supply Unit is out of stock and they cannot send a replacement unit..

    Im now trying to find a vendor who can sell me the power supply unit as I do not believe that Microsoft will have it available anytime soon and I do not want to use my XBOX One as a Paper weight till then..

    Seriously Microsoft don't you guys know that Power Supply Units, Controllers and other such common accessories are mostly the ones that need replacement shouldn't you have these over stocked in a country where the XBOX One Sales are so high???

    According to one news channel it said that on the day one there were 200 units were delivered by Amazon.in to MUMBAI Alone..let aside the other big cities in India.
