Chosen Solution
Got the console from someone who claimed the unit would work and then freeze up after a few minutes. He needed the original power supply for his replacement console, so I bought one to use for myself. One plug tested at 5V. The other tested at 12V. I don’t remember measuring current. The console AC adapter was plugged into a surge protector sharing a TV, an HDTV antenna receiver, and a laptop AC adapter. I used an HDMI cable which was working on an original XBox 360 console and then an OEM component cable. I can open and close the disc tray with an audible beep. Hitting the power button gets me a green light and I’m forgetting whether there was a beep. Using an original XBox 360 wireless controller, when I pressed the XBox Guide button to power it up, all four quadrants on that button started blinking. I replicated the same results using an original XBox 360 wired controller over several USB ports, but not all of them. I believe the fan was spinning in all instances. The TV still has yet to receive a signal (whether on HDMI or component). I also noticed … an X-clamp! … in the teardown guide. After fixing several original XBox 360 consoles, I really want to get rid of the 360S’ X-clamp and replace it (and perhaps the thermal grease). What else should I try and examine in order to repair this console? Thanks for reading!
I think it’s totaled
did you try replacing the RAM drive or the motherboard?
that may fix the freezing
and for the connectivity try replacing the HDMI output that is on the back of the X-box 360 S
I hope this will be helpful
sorry that all of my answers were all separate
im actually not entirely shore if it uses RAM sticks/drives or if it’s built into the motherboard of the xbox
this type of problem is also more commonly know to happen to PCs as well. and generally how you fix it is by re-installing the OS of the PC, so if you can figure out a way to get a copy the OS of the xbox and then re-install the OS you may be abal to fix the problem. I had a similar problem with my laptop and a friend of mine fixed it by re-installing the OS, so I think it my be possible to do it with your xbox
Make shore not both the componant and hdmi are plugged in
