Xbox One X start but stop in 1 s

Cyril Vignaud · Aug 11, 2020

Hello,

My Xbox One X has an issue.

It has stopped by itself, and now when I try to start it, (by using the X button) the console makes the starting sound, the white light goes on, and then 1 second after all stop (no more noise, no more light, nothing ...).

It’s the same think (light, sound and go off) if I press the eject button.

I try a hard reset, but it’s does not work. I unplug the Xbox and test many hours after on a different plug but it’s still not working…

Is there something to do to fix this issue?

Regards

Cyril

PS : The Xbox is properly ventilated

Thst is a strange one, is it the OG xbox 1? Or the 'S'/'X' ? Older consoles start becoming worn down after a while, and the only fix is to upgrade sometimes.

nope, series s or x only, even pc's way more powerful than the series x still struggle, it would be like stop motion on the original xbox one and s models.

It will get increasingly more difficult to find stock now that Microsoft has stopped making the Xbox One X and the Xbox One S Digital.

I would wait until they potentially announce the Xbox Series S which will be the cheaper version of the Series X later this year.

It somewhat helps... i guess the million dollar questions will be: “if it works works on the xbox one (original) but doesnt work with the xbox one s/x, can i assume that this is a firmware item? If so is it a matter of time till the original xbox one stops
working or perhaps an update for the one s/x that will fix the issue?
