  1. Xbox one X won't power up


    My xbox one x the other day decided to turn off randomly. Went to press it back on and wont come back on. Press the on button, it beeps and light comes on then instantly shuts off within 1 second. Can't turn on with the controller either. Anyone know what
    is up with it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    :)

    Xbox one X won't power up

    Hi ii Rapidzzz XD,

    First place to check is the Xbox support page for this type of issue which may prove most useful for you. Here is the link.

    https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/console/console-wont-power-on

    Here are also a few possible reason why you may be unable to power up a system that may help.

    Cause 1: Device not plugged in

    Check to make sure that the power supply is plugged into a power outlet and that the other end is properly plugged into the Xbox One.

    Cause 2: No display detected

    If the ‘Xbox’ light on the front of the console is lit, it won't start up unless it detects a working display. Check your HDMI cable connection. Try switching cables or ports on your TV.

    Cause 3: Bad power outlet

    If your device is still not turning on, try plugging directly into a different power outlet, not through a surge protector.

    Cause 4: Internal power supply breaker tripped

    Because the console has a built-in surge protector, you should not connect it to an external surge protector. If you connect the console to another surge protector, the console cannot reach the full power that is needed for optimal performance.

    To reset the internal power supply, follow these steps:

    Unplug the power cord from the console.

    Wait 10 seconds.

    Plug the cord back into the console, and then press the Xbox button on the front of the console.

    If the console turns on, the internal power reset worked. Do this step in the future if the problem happens again.

    Cause 5: Bad power supply

    If the power outlet is providing power, but the console still does not turn on then the power supply may be the issue. Check the light on the power supply; if the light is solid white or orange then the power supply is working properly. If there is no light,
    unplug the supply and let it cool for 20 minutes, then try plugging it back in. If it still does not light up then you need to replace the power supply.

    Cause 6: Bad motherboard

    If the power supply light is on but your device still does not turn on, then the motherboard may be the problem. If it is, you may need to replace the motherboard which requires you contact MS technical support to open a service ticket.

    I hope something here helps get you back in the game. Best of luck.

    My Xbox One X won't power up...

    Hey Ron

    Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are currently inquiring about factory resetting your console.

    By standard protocol, if you were to
    get your console repaired
    by our Service Center, your console would be restored to factory defaults anyway. As a final measure, it is always recommended to use this last.

    There is an article that covers
    Xbox One consoles not turning on
    that I would recommend, as it does have some troubleshooting techniques you could attempt to use.

    I hope this is of some use to you.

    According this support article xbox X power works worldwide

    Quote" The Xbox One S and Xbox One X have an internal power supply that works in all regions worldwide. If your console won't turn on, it may simply need a power reset. Often, power issues are due to the power supply resetting after a power surge.
