    Xbox continues to intermittently start in 640x480


    hello, for the past year my Xbox has continually on an intermittent basis starts up in 640x480 resolution. When I go into the setting to select a different aspect back to HD quality.... The option is locked to the 640. In the past I have been able to hard
    reset the console and it would fix it self. Or change AV inputs for a min then switch back to my Xbox and it would fix it if the hard reset didn’t work. But today, nothing is working to reset it. Seems to be a problem for other users from a few years back.
    But the directions to fix it are no longer viable as the settings have changed due to updates to the software. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Accidentally Changed Resolution during setup and can't get it back to normal (640/480)

    I have my Xbox 360 connected via HMDI to a Widescreen TV. This afternoon I was checking some setting in the initial setup and accidentally changed the resolution from 640x480. Now all I get are horizontal lines across the screen. How do I get back to 640x480,
    or to initial state so I can start over??

    ......ermm.... part way through the first mission and first impressions are why is the resolution 640x480 and I thought I sold my original xbox a long time ago....

    Will persevere but really unimpressed with the mess of the start..

    Problem displaying in 1080p resolution

    I can change the resolution out of 640x480 but if I choose 720p, 1440p or 1080p the green screen start again.

    I tried using another device (laptop, xbox 360) with the same HDMI cable and they are displayed in 1080p perfectly. As soon as I reconnect the HDMI cable on my xbox one the screen shrinks in 640x480

    There are a few others I tried from non-microsoft forums but they just repeat the same troubleshooting suggestions from above.

    Intermittent black screening (but continued audio)

    It's a glitch in the recent Xbox One update. Just hold the X logo on the Xbox One for 10 seconds to force it to turn off. Then turn it back on. I believe the March 4 update will fix it.

    Intermittent black screening (but continued audio)

    I have done this restart but seems to continually do it.

    Hopefully that will fix it then. I guess it is a compatibility issue with some TVs?
