    Series X randomly Shut off. Said it overheated, but wasn't hot.


    Playing DayZ. Twice in a row, about an hour into playing it randomly went straight to black. Thought it hard crashed and pushed me to the menu. But no. Right off. Turned it back on, got the startup noise and symbol. Cut to the “your console shuts off to not over heat.” But not one time did i get a notification the console was hot.. ok so i check it out. Not really hot, but the hell do I know, right? So i unplug it, let it sit, clean it out with duster. Let it sit again. Turn it on, play the game. Hour into DayZ, black again. Thing shut down, but this time colder than the last.

    Why wont i get a “hot” notification?

    Why does it keep doing this?

    Edit. Sorry, quick type picked two cusses and not “shut”.

    :)

    My XBOX SERIES X shuts off mid game while I am playing games Please help

    Your system is shutting down to prevent data corruption after hitting an error

    If you get no message about overheating, it's not an issue

    High end electronics get hot, it is perfectly normal.Ever touch an incandescent light bulb? How hot those are? They use less than half the power of Series X

    Xbox Shutting down

    The Xbox Series X turns itself off randomly to protect itself from overheating or when there is no power.The majority of reports of the Xbox
    Series X turning off appear to be related to next-gen games like Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War and Assassin's Creed Valhalla.

    Xbox One X Crashing During Multiplayer COD Matches

    If your One X is completely shutting off, then I’ve had this happen to me a few times. If this is what’s happening to you, then it’s a bug in CoD (also happens in Borderlands 3 sometimes). I think it makes the One X think it is overheating. This causes the
    console to shut down. Just check to make sure the console isn’t too hot and reboot.

    Xbox One X Shut Itself Down

    To confirm, you've had it randomly shut off on you, even if it hasn't been on long and doesn't seem to be overheating?
