    Suspension Issues

    now since this happened my Xbox keeps screwing up continuously asking me to sign in, giving error codes for every game I try to play (this game is taking too long to load, Xbox guide is taking too long to load, etc etc) console continuously rebooting itself,
    freezing, won't even let me add another account to my console.

    Ffs it was perfectly fine before my suspension that shouldn't of even happened and now its going haywire!

    Xbox one keeps freezing and everything is taking "to long to start"

    I have just downloaded a new update for my Xbox one and now everything is taking to long to start and the screen keeps freezing. I can't even sign in or open settings because it won't stop freezing or it's taking to long to start.

    I have restarted my Xbox many times and it's not working.

    Does anyone know what to do?

    Hey there Tamara Alex,

    Everything on the Xbox says it's taking too long.

    Hi,

    How do you have your console plugged in to the mains supply? Is it directly into the wall or via a power strip? If it's via a power strip, is it surge protected. Faulty power strips and surge protectors can cause issues with the Xbox One console. Also power
    strips that are overloaded will also cause issues with your console.

    If your console is connected directly to the mains (with nothing in-between) and you've checked your external storage is working and hard or factory resets have made no difference, I'm afraid you're console is likely faulty.
