    Xbox won't boot up?


    Been having issues with game crashes for the past 2/3 days, they have progressively got worse to the point of games not even being able to load to menus before crashing back to dashboard today, I've power cycled and hard reset my console with no improvement, now it refuses to boot up past the initial Xbox logo, the Xbox service status checker seems to be temperamental, half the time it refuses to load and claims to be down and the other half it's displaying no issues across the board, is it just a waiting game or is my console cooked?

    :)

    I did this already, four separate times now, and it still does exactly the same thing.

    It comes on, brings up the green Xbox screen which idles for several long minutes, and then goes directly to a black screen and continues to do nothing.

    Try performing a hard reset EXACTLY like this. Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely.
    Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes.
    Plug the power cord back in and restart the console.

    Xbox won't boot up

    Hello Tempus,

    Thanks for posting here on the Xbox forums. In this scenario, a soft factory reset usually does the trick. Please first attempt the power cycle steps provided by parity above. If the issue persists, try this out :

    1. Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.
    2. Wait 30 seconds, and then plug the power cord back in.
    3. Press and hold the BIND button (located below the Xbox button on the console Xbox one S and X), and then press the
      Xbox button on the console.
    4. Continue holding the BIND button for 10-15 seconds.
    5. Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart. You can release the
      BIND button after the second power-up tone.
    6. The console should power up and take you directly to the Xbox Startup Troubleshooter.

    From this screen, select reset console (Reset and keep my games and apps). Please note that you will have to redownload your account after this step. Make sure that you know the email/password for any accounts you use.

    Hey HeLLvetica Toro,

    So the Console has power, lights up but you just got a blackscreen? Can you see the greenstartup Information before it turns black or anything else?

    If not you could try a different HDMI Cable and to use a different HDMI port of your TV to see if you get any Display output, even if only for a short time.

    Please post back your outcome.
