    Xbox series x will only turn on for 30 seconds at a time


    I received a faulty xbox series x yesterday, and have been unable to set it up. When u initially tried, it was working up to the point of the first update where it shut off without prompting and didn't restart. Since then, when the xbox gets turned on it
    will boot up for 30 seconds with screen flickering before shutting itself off. I managed to try a factory reset, but that hasn't fixed the issue. We have also already tried different tvs and plugging in to different outlets but nothing has worked.

    Microsoft support has been down and we can't contact anyone. This has been an absolutely horrible experience.

    :)

    Xbox series x only turns on for a second

    Hello Uneven, I hope everything is going well!

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

    Normally in such cases, a power reset would have fixed the issue; however, here are some points to check:

    • Check that the wall outlet you’re using is working with other devices.
    • Check that the power cable is firmly connected to the wall outlet and to your console.
    • Ensure that you're using the power cable that came with your console, and that it's the correct cable for your region.
    If your console still will not turn on, it needs to be serviced. To request service, sign in to Microsoft account | Devices with your Microsoft account and submit a service order.

    I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

    Kind Regards

    Stay safe, and happy gaming!

    good evening

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your Xbox Series X turning off after a short time of gameplay. There could be a few different issues causing this problem.

    Make sure that your Xbox is properly ventilated. The Xbox Series X can get quite hot during gameplay, and if it doesn't have enough airflow, it could shut down to prevent overheating. Check that there is nothing blocking the vents on the console and that the room it is in is well-ventilated.

    Check the power supply. Make sure that the power supply is properly connected to both the wall outlet and the Xbox, and that the outlet is functioning properly. You might also try using a different outlet or power strip to see if that makes a difference.

    Update the Xbox software. Sometimes software updates can fix bugs or other issues that might be causing problems with your console. To check for updates, go to the "Settings" menu, then select "System," then "console info & updates," and then select "check for updates."

    Reset the Xbox. If none of these suggestions help, you could try resetting the Xbox to see if that resolves the issue. To reset the Xbox, go to the "Settings" menu, then select "System," then "console info & updates," and then select "reset console."
