    Series X screwup


    Good morning Xbox community,

    Coming to you with a question regarding the Series X . Recently I left a t-shirt on the top of my Series X to prevent things , small toys , small amounts of liquid , etc from going into the machine through the top vent. What I didn't realize is that the system was in an active shutoff /sleep mode , and the fan was spinning. It got kind of hot in the machine, but I realized this , let the machine air out and changed the shut down setting to the power saving mode which actually shuts the Xbox completely down.

    My question is this: Will my error damage to the console? What are the odds that it has damaged the console? What are the tolerances of the Series X hardware?

    Thanks for your time.

    :)

    Series X screwup

    Unfortunately I kept this cover on it for a few days but I realized my error and removed it. I've played the Xbox a few times and it doesn't seem that there are problems or anything so I'm hoping nothing will come of it. Thanks for your time!

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today DM422

    Never put something on the top of the console, no matter the power mode selected.
    If you did this only one time, I think that your console should be fine

    But if you do that in a daily basis, that definitely can cause problems in the future

    In case you need to know how to ventilate properly your console please check this article

    Hi DM422

    In this case let’s wait for the best!

    I hope your console has a long life and this inconvenience has not affected it!

    are there any days that give more exp while playing?

    Yeah, from what I recall, bar the slight screwup with Horde pack, there's only been one weekend of increased XP.

    Free with Gold; Rayman 3 HD $9.99?

    Its is FREE if you get it from Xbox Live on your Xbox 360, but it Won't D/L for free on the Xbox One.

    It has to be a Microsoft Screwup!
