    Power light comes on but nothing else on startup.


    So I haven’t used my Xbox one in a few weeks and I go to turn it on today and have nothing but a blank screen. Power button lit up, changed HDMI cables and source on tv, but nothing happening on the screen.

    Power light comes on but nothing else on startup.

    Hello JacobSorrell! I'm Claus, an Independent Microsoft Community Consultant for Xbox! Glad to be able to help you!

    Given that your console is powering on, but nothing shows up on your screen, then try these steps:

    1. With the console on, press and hold the Xbox button on the console itself until it shuts off.

    2. Unplug it from the wall for 30 seconds.

    3. Connect it to wall again.

    4. Turn it on.

    5. Check if the issue has been resolved.

    If by doing that, your console doesn't show anything on screen, then follow these steps:

    1. If there's a disc in the Xbox console, eject it (only applies to Xbox One (S and X) and Series X).

    2. On the console, press and hold the Xbox button for 10 seconds to turn off the console.

    3. Press and hold the Xbox button and the Eject* button (check the note below if your console doesn't have the Eject button) until you hear a beep to turn on the console. You’ll hear one beep right away and a second beep 10 seconds later.

    The power light will flash on before the second beep. Don’t let go from Power and Eject* ( or Pair, depending on your console) until the second beep occurs.

    *Note: If you have an Xbox One S All-Digital Edition or Xbox Series S, you’ll need to press and hold the Xbox button and the Pair button instead, as your console does not have an Eject button.

    4. This will boot your console in low resolution mode (640 × 480). To reset this setting, press the Xbox button to open the guide. Select Profile & system, then Settings.

    If your console still doesn't power on in low resolution mode, check if it can access the Troubleshooting screen. Follow these steps:

    1. Unplug the network cable if you're using a wired network connection.

    2. Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.

    3. Wait 30 seconds, and then plug the power cord back in.

    Note: The Xbox Series S and the Xbox One S All-Digital Edition do not have Eject buttons. You can bring up the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter on this console by holding only the Pair button and then pressing the Xbox button. Disregard the Eject button for these two consoles.

    4. Press and hold the Pair/Bind button and the Eject button, and then press the Xbox button on the console.

    5. Continue holding the Pair and Eject buttons for 10-15 seconds.

    6. Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart. You can release the Pair and Eject buttons after the second power-up tone.

    If you see the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter, then select Reset this Xbox, and then Reset and keep my games & apps.

    If even after that your console doesn't work, I recommend that you change your TV to a different TV/monitor and also replace the HDMI cable. If after that your issue isn't fixed, your console will have to be repaired.

    Game update caused my console to completely crash and now won't start.

    Hi there,

    When you attempt yo powwr on the console, does it light up and make the startup chime, or is it literally doing nothing at all? Could be a power supply issue

    Black Screen

    Similar problems, screen stays black entire time, light comes on and stays on for 5 to 20 seconds then goes off. Can’t access the Startup Troubleshooter. Get one startup sound, but never a second. When I let go, it just goes to sleep. Can even get
    it to start from a controller with a blinking connection, but connection stas blinking and console acts exactly the same. Light comes on, sounds like its booting, then sleeps after 15 to 20 seconds. Tried cables, connections, super ventilation...nothing
    works.

    Xbox series s was hit by lightning and wouldn't come on, so I replaced the power supply and the light came on with the ding sound but nothing else, no fan running or any video, what else could it be?

    Xbox series S was hit by lightning and wouldn't come on, so I replaced the power supply and the light came on with the ding sound but nothing else, no fan running or any video, what else could it be?
    If it was a lightning strike literally any number of components could've been damaged inside so its hard to say with any certainty.
