    Power button is glowing, but nothing is happening.


    After Divinity: Original Sin EE (Digital copy) wouldn't load up twice I tried to go to into
    My Games & Apps and the system froze. I unplugged the power cable after a few minutes and let it sit for 30 seconds. When I plugged it back in and powered it back up the light is glowing like it's on (the Kinect isn't turning on), but there's no image
    on my TV as if it's not working. It seems like it's just stuck there in the first few seconds of turning on and nothing is happening. Any ideas?

    I've already tried: Different HDMI cables - - - Different HDMI port (PS4 works fine on the same TV) - - - Holding power button for 10 seconds - - - Unplugging it for 5 minutes and plugging it back in - - - Let it sit in this state
    for 20 minutes - - - Praying.

    :)

    Ryse is seriously taking the mick!

    Are you sure you're pressing the correct button for the lever?

    I had a problem where I kept pressing A and nothing was happening. Then I realised that the lever was glowing yellow. So I press the Y button as its the yellow button and it worked.

    Chat adapter not working/making console freeze

    The chat adapter is making my console freeze and its not working. it seems to work sometimes in party chat but game chat not working at all.

    I also noticed that when i power off the console the xbox button on my console blinks in and out constantly before completely shutting down. What does that mean and its that normal?



    The chat adapter issue started happening after the july update. Beforehand it worked perfectly.



    The glowing power button been happening for a while when trying to shut down the console.



    any recommendations or thoughts are appreciated. thanks

    Xbox 360 slim does not stay on

    It still does the same thing. I press the button, it beeps, the button glows green for about one half of a second. Then it powers down.

    Xbox One power button doesn't light up? AKA Guide Button.

    I was thinking the same thing. It's a minor gripe but the little glowing power button gave it a little more flare.

    What are your thoughts with the Xbox One Slim?

    Physical power button? 90% of the time just use the controller to power on, but still liked just touching the glowing X every once in awhile...yes I'm easily amused. ;-)

    Peace, J.R.
