    Series X Restarts After Shutdown, Then Won't Function or Power Off Without Reboot


    Every time I play on the Xbox Series X then shut down using the controller or power button, the console turns back on a few seconds later. The Xbox then freezes on the start/profile select screen. The controllers won't work even if I press the sync button.
    The only way to play again or shut it off is to do a hard restart. Has anyone found a solution for this?

    I've tried switching between instant on and energy saving mode but it happens either way. I'm not sure if a software update is going to fix this or if I have a faulty product.

    :)

    My Xbox One has stopped reading DVD

    I've had recent issues with noise and disc drive not being recognised on my Xbox Series X and the only way I found to stop this issue is to do a Full shutdown of the console and restart.

    Settings>System>General>Power...>Full shutdown.

    Its worthwhile removing power cable from console for a few minutes after you shutdown before you restart.

    All discs not working on Xbox One

    Its worthwhile removing power cable from console for a few minutes after you shutdown before you restart.

    Also, eject the disc before you shutdown.

    Is anyone else having as much trouble with the Series X disc drive

    I've had the exact issue in the last few weeks which I was sure was caused by Insider preview updates and/or Power setting Instant on. My disc drive is not faulty on my new XBSX because after I restart console (Full shutdown) it is recognised again.

    I've had recent issues with noise and disc drive not being recognised and the only way I found to stop this issue is to do a Full shutdown of the console and restart. If you find you cannot reconnect to the network after the restart you may have to restart your network hardware also.

    Settings>System>General>Power...>Full shutdown.

    Its worthwhile removing power cable from console for a few minutes after you shutdown and before you restart.

    Edit (1st Oct 2021)... Disc drive on Xbox Series X is no longer recognised at all. Seems it was dying a slow death. This AU$750.00 console is 6 months old and was bought because I have a game disc collection. It is now a brick until it gets replaced.

    Its the second time I've bought new Xbox console (Xbox 1 X and now Xbox Series X) only to have some bit of hardware fail within a very short period of time.

    Time for some better Quality Control methinks.

    My Xbox One has stopped reading DVD

    I have experienced this issue with the last 6-8 Alpha Skip Ahead OS previews.

    I've reported this issue using Report a Problem several times on my new Xbox Series X.

    It always occurs after restarting console from Instant on.

    A simple restart of the console from the Power menu or a Full shutdown resolves this issue for me.

    Recordings either have no sound or delayed.

    Have you tried a full shutdown and reboot.

    Either switch to energy saving mode and turn off or press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds until shutdown.

    Once light on power brick turns orange unplug from mains power for a few minutes before plugging back in and rebooting.
