Series x screen flickering on and off on some games

MTWOSE · Nov 9, 2021

Just recently started having this problem. When launching hotwheels my TV screen starts flickering between the game and blank screen.It also does it on flight sim and continues in any game until I reset the xbox.all other games work fine before I try hotwheels or flight sim.When launching Flight Sim it does it for a few seconds then goes back to dash. In hotwheels it doesn't stop until you reset xbox.

On your Xbox, please go to Settings - tv and display options - set the resolution to 1080 - under Advanced to the right click on video modes - uncheck Allow 4K and HDR10. Then restart your console and launch the game.

If you've already tried reinstalling the games, I'm afraid the best thing to do is to request for a service.

I have allready tried that too. Could it be a problem with the internal hard drive, because the games that have issues are the ones on that.

Hi, thanks for the advice but it hasn't worked. It seems to be only series x optimised games, all my other xbox one/360 games work fine.

Hi! My name is Pam. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

Have you tried doing a factory reset? This time, I'll be providing you a step to restore your console to its factory defaults to remove all potentially corrupted files that can interrupt you from using the console’s full potential. Nothing to worry as everything will stay intact, you just need to sign in using your account. No games or apps will be deleted. Make sure you know your emails and password, okay?

Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

Select Settings > System > Console info > reset then keep my games and apps.
