    When I turn my Xbox on its just a black screen


    When I turn on my Xbox the green startup screen will turn on but after that its just black. If I hold down the Xbox button on my controller the menu to turn off my Xbox, turn off controller, or restart my console pops up but nothing else. I have tried doing the reset where I turn the Xbox off then hold the power button and the eject button to turn it back on but that doesn't work. Can someone please help. Also it was working just fine earlier. The only reason I turned my Xbox off was because a game wasn't loading so I thought if I turn it off that it might work when I turn it back on.

    :)

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    In this case, we just need to reset your console keeping your games and apps through the Xbox Troubleshooter page. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

    Make sure to follow the steps accordingly to access it:

    1. Unplug the network cable if you're using a wired network connection.

    2. Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.

    3. Wait 30 seconds, and then plug the power cord back in.

    4. Press and hold the Pair button (located on the left side of the console) and the Eject button (located on the front of the console), and then press the Xbox button on the console.

    5. Continue holding the Pair and Eject buttons for 10-15 seconds.

    6. Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart. You can release the Pair and Eject buttons after the second power-up tone.

    When the console powers up, you will see the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter. Please click on "Reset this Xbox" then "Reset and keep my games and apps".
