Will unplugging my series x when it’s on damage it in any sort of way?

Hi,

It won't do any damage. If a game is saving at the time of power loss could create a broken save or you can have problems sometimes during a power loss when the console is updating, normally correctable. It's only like playing while having a power cut.

I would try to make sure he can't keep doing it by moving the console to another location out of his reach perhaps? Just be sure to put it where it can still have good airflow.

Nothing to worry about. Enjoy your console.

good evening

I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble getting your Xbox Series X to work with the HDMI cable it came with.

Make sure the HDMI cable is securely plugged into the correct HDMI port on your TV and your Xbox Series X.

Try a different HDMI port on your TV to see if that fixes the problem.

Check for any visible damage to the HDMI cable, such as frayed wires or bent connectors. If you find any damage, try using a different HDMI cable.

Power cycle your TV and your Xbox Series X. To do this, turn off both devices, unplug them from the wall, and wait a few minutes before plugging them back in and turning them on again.

Check for any updates for your TV or Xbox Series X and install them if necessary.

It's so annoying, when i'm working from home I have to unplug my series X because everytime i turn on my xbox wireless headset for a teams metting, it will turn on my series X........ so annoying.

Hi Caleb, my name is Oskayra and I will be happy to help you.

If a small piece of Lego falls on top of your Xbox Series X, it most likely won't cause any damage. The Xbox Series X has an internal cooling system that is designed to prevent foreign objects from entering the inside of the console. However, it is possible that the Lego piece could block airflow or cause a short circuit.

If the Lego piece is blocking airflow, the Xbox X Series could overheat and shut down. If the Lego piece causes a short circuit, it could damage the console hardware.

In your case, since the Xbox Series X powers up fine, it is likely that the Lego piece did not cause any damage. However, it is possible that the Lego piece is blocking airflow or causing a noise. If you notice any problems with the Xbox X Series, such as it frequently turns off or makes a lot of noise, it is possible that the Lego piece is causing the problem.

To check if the Lego piece is causing a problem, you can try to open the Xbox Series X. However, this may void the console's warranty, so it is important to be careful. If you decide to open the console, be sure to follow the instructions carefully to avoid damaging it.

If you open the console and find the Lego piece, you can try to remove it carefully. If you are unable to remove it, you can take the console to a repair center to have it removed for you.

Best regards Oskayra
