XBOX One not starting up with XBOX Controller

Hi, that's not looking to good, it may be a corrupted hard drive or some system files are messed up.

What you could try is to factory reset the Xbox, you'll need to be sure you know your account login details before doing this as you will need those, so without further ado........

Power the Xbox off by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds, then press and hold the controller bind button on the Xbox ( not on the controller ) and the disc eject button, keep both those buttons held in and press the Xbox power button once
only.

The Xbox should power up, keep bind and eject held and hopefully you'll get the troubleshooter up, when you do then let go of those two buttons. From the troubleshooter select the option to reset the xbox and select the Reset and keep my games & apps option.

If the troublshooter doesn't come up first time then try the process again.

The reset will take maybe 5 minutes or so, the Xbox may also update again during the process, if all goes well then you'll need to add your account/s back to the Xbox, when you do that be sure that you
do not select Get a new account otherwise you'll have all sorts of issues, just enter the email address and password for the account/s you want to add to the Xbox.

Once that's done then with a little bit of luck your Xbox will be back to working order.

Good kuck

try to powercycle it by holding the power button for 10 seconds and turning it back on.

Tried that! It froze part way through the re-set up.

Hey there mitchcazza!

What happens if you start up the Xbox Accessory app first, and then plug in your Xbox One Controller via USB? If you're able to connect with the steps there, try updating your controller with the steps over on
This Page.

Here is the issue that I encounter and how I work around it.

Set Up:

* I have my Xbox One wireless controller with Turtle Beach XO7 headset plugged into controller.

* My Xbox One wireless controller is wirelessly connected to my Xbox One

* I have no other controllers plugged in or online (either with my Xbox One or my PC)

* I have no microphone plugged into my PC nor are any recording devices enabled or active on my PC

On my Xbox One on the TV I turn on my controller and headset. I start up (or join) a party chat. I am able to chat normally and my party-mates are able to hear me.

I start up Game Streaming to Windows 10 Xbox One Beta app. I am still using my wireless controller but all of a sudden my party-mates cannot hear me any longer.

Work Around:

I log my profile out of the Xbox One and then re-sign into my profile. I can then join or start a profile with my Xbox One controller headset working perfectly fine. All party-mates can hear me and I can hear them.

I really hope Microsoft figures out a way to seamlessly transition party chat and Xbox One wireless controller + headset on the fly from non-streaming to Windows 10 streaming!
