xbox one e101 rea;;y cost $300 to repair

The e101 error doesnt mean it needs to be repaired.... The e100 error means it needs to be repaired. E101 is you downloaded the wrong update and you need to download the correct one and try again. Then it should work properly

This page here might be able to help with the startup errors.

It has support pages for both E101 and E102.

Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried all the steps with no success. I worry I may need to send for repair but I'm really hoping someone has been able to bypass needing to do so as the cost to repair is almost the same as a new console.

"there is no bind button on a xbox one X"

The BIND button is located on the left side of the console.

An E101 error indicates you may have a hardware problem and the console needs to be repaired.

Also, if you are in the Insider program, OSU's will not work and are not compatible with Insider OS previews

Thanks, I updated grid and then it messed up. It gave me 1 E101, then an E102. When I try to restart or reset it has given me E106, then an E105.

Either way it wont restart. Looks like my xbox days are over. It cost 450 and as just run out of guarantee so definitely not paying to get it repaired as I presume that would be at least half the price again.

Thanks anyway.

Allen!

thank you, i troed this amd nothing worked. When the usb is plugged in the option on the xbox remains grayed out.... and i do not want to send it in since the repair cost just to send to microsoft is $300, is there anything else that may work?
