    Xbox one powers on but won't start up


    Hello. As the title says when i press the ON button both the button and the power supply lights become white but I have no signal, my controller does not connect and the fan makes some weird noises. I think I have tried all of the
    solutions with the button pressing and the usb drive but nothing seems to work for me. I have my console for 2 years, I have never pushed the machine very hard and I can't fathom how it broke in just 2 years. Is there any solution I might be missing or a cause
    for this problem?

    :)

    Xbox One Powers On, but won't boot

    Since a few preview program updates ago, My xbox started to have issues. It got to the point where digital games would skip, lag, and would take forever to load. The console would even freeze, and hardlock. Two or so days after an update the console frooze
    and once I rebooted, the console would power up, but do nothing more.

    I'm thinking the hard drive has died. I did the diagnostic tool, and got to the dashboard, but that didn't last long before the console frooze again.

    Anything else I can try? Does it sound like a hard drive issue?

    In case anyone is having the same problem and can't find a solution I have this to say. It's most likely the hard drive. It was in my case. The hard drive just died and was making the weird noises (not the fan). You can request a repair to change the hard
    drive or do it yourselfs if you are brave enough and out of warranty with a little help from the internet. The hard drive was of a good brand too it's not like Microsoft wanted to save big cash and put a cheap one inside so I guess I can't really blame them.
    Bad luck.

    Xbox One - Has power but won't start up

    Hi could you try the steps on this link please.

    https://support.xbox.com/en-us/xbox-one/console/tv-or-monitor-screen-is-blank-while-connected

    In particular the section on resetting the display settings.

    1. If there's a disc in the Xbox One console, eject it.
    2. On the console, press and hold the Xbox button for five seconds to turn off the console.
    3. Press and hold the Xbox button and the Eject button until you hear a beep to turn on the console. You will hear one beep right away and a second beep 10 seconds later. The power light will flash on before the second beep.
      DO NOT LET GO until the second beep occurs.
      Note This will boot your console in low resolution mode (640 × 480). To reset this setting, go to System > Settings in the guide, select Display & sounds, Video options,
      and then TV Resolution.

    Xbox One - Has power but won't start up

    Hi Ruby,

    Can you try different HDMI ports on the TV? Also maybe try a different TV if you have one. There may be an issue with the HDMI port also on the console. If you or a friend, family member have an Xbox try another console on same TV with same HDMI and port.

    Thanks,

    Brad
