Series S getting black screen on the Home Screen

MemeMaster_12 · Jun 7, 2021

I was on the Home Screen, and when I pressed the button with the three lines, the screen turned black but I could still access the guide. When I opened the guide I pressed the Home button and everything got back to normal. This happened to me on Friday.

Is this something to be concerned about?

Having the same exact problem on Xbox series s can play everything but the Rawlings compound just black screen after the cut screen hoping this gets fixed asap

I have a Series S with two years of GamePass Ultimate. Downloaded BLACK, I see the “360 hard drive needed” message, when I attempt to launch the game it just goes right back to Home Screen.

Is it just a black screen that you get? Not sure if it's the same issue, but I get this sometimes as well. The way that I get around it is that it will still let me press the Home button on the controller, which will bring up the side bar menu on the left
side of the screen, over the black screen. I'll then select Home from the menu, and it will freshly load the Home screen on the Xbox and there is no more black screen. Hopefully that works for you as well.

Hello, I have the series s too, and forza horizon 4 stopped working. Whenever I pressed a on it, it would go to the black screen (the copyright stuff), then go back to the home screen. I tried restarting my xbox, reinstalling forza, reseting the console, and nothing. Idk what to do, please help me!
