Youre probably screwed. 360's are breaktacular. Im on my 3rd one. Turn it off take off your hard drive and turn it back on and see what it does. Look for the ring of fire (3 red lights). Mine is being "fixed right now", so hopefully the hurry up and give me my stupid refurbished one.

Ha, I like the quotes on "fixed right now". But shouldn't some sort of indicator show up (in form of an assortment of red lights) if something is terribly wrong with the actual box? Or is even the error warning system on the xbox360 messed up too?

Sorry kid. This is the Halo 2 forum, not an xbox diagnostic discussion. Keep all conversations relevant and related to Halo 2.

This thread should be moved or either locked for being irrelevant, not interesting and off-topic.

Ha. Troll over here thinks he's an admin. Quite obviously this thread will be moved based on it's non-relativeness to Halo 2 anyways, I really don't think we need to wait on your call for that one. Then again, as he was playing Halo 2 at the time, perhaps it will stay here. Either way, I hope you don't lose too much sleep over it.

Kid, that's unnecessary. I was simply reiterating the forum's policies.

You're quite the annoyance aren't you 'dkfrumwithin'.

While Mukade seems to want to make every thread into a public place for his personal battlegrounds, let's get on point once again here. What is the actual xbox360 policy for repairs? I don't own one, but I have heard many horror stories, and does it actually take several weeks for them to fix it? Are all 360's doomed to fail right from the get-go?

As I said 'dkfrumwithin', I was simply stating the forum's policy of all discussions must be on the subject of Halo 2. This has absolutely nothing to do with xbox 360 repair and its policies.

You're an anti-forum citizen are you not, 'dkfrumwithin'? Always frustrating me and everyone else who reads your posts. It is really quite a shame people must witness such annoyance coming form you.

Last time I respond to Mukade. I don't want to be banned as well.

This is a blatant case of trolling directed at an individual. See the TUE thread for multiple cases of trolling against the entire community. I am sorry that this thread has been ruined by this banter, and note how I tried to stop it several times. From here on out I will not respond to Mukade, rather, I will hope the ninjas do their job and ban this shameless troll.

I honestly have nothing to say on this topic, but I invite someone else to comment on the original question. Once again, I'm sorry your thread has been hijacked.

Its probably just your television video socket on it. Try connecting your Xbox 360 to a VCR, then take a cable and connect it to your television that way.

Hope this works!!

I find it quite annoying when people come into threads, and say how its gonna be moved. Really Mukade, if the mods feel the need to move this, they will, you posting in it about how its gonna get moved doesn't help at all. Either help the guy out, and give him advice, or just don't post.

Haha, I know because it happened to me like week ago, and all I did was change from Video3 to 2, and it solved everything.

Well does your TV still work? Otherwise, as everyone else said, its the input you're using. Try another one

Can you hear the game but not see an image? I bet your tv is probably fried. Make sure that the AV cable part that connects to your 360, not tv, is plugged all the way. If thats not it then your tv is prolly fried cause thats what happened to my brothers.
