Warped discs could potentially damage your drive. If the drive makes a loud noise while the disc is spinning, try ejecting it and checking to make sure that the disc is flat and not warped.
If the Eject button doesn’t fix it, this is likely a problem that only Microsoft can fix so we’d recommend contacting Xbox support in your region to arrange a warranty claim or repair.įor discs that are halfway stuck, try placing a small amount of pressure on the disc to see if anything moves but take care not to apply too much force or you may end up in a worse situation. We recommend setting the “Refresh rate” to 60Hz first.
#How to install hdmi cable to xbox 360 tv#
Head to Settings > General > TV & display options to change settings to match those of your TV. If this has worked your console should now start up in low-resolution mode. To start the console up in safe mode, press and hold the Xbox button on the front of your console and the Eject button at the same time until you hear two beeps (the second beep should occur around 10 seconds after the first). Now press and hold the Xbox button the front of your console for 10 seconds to shut it down. To do this, first eject any discs in your console using the eject button on the front. This might happen if you change the display connected to your Xbox without first adjusting the video settings under Settings > General > TV & display options.įortunately, you can start your console in safe mode, which defaults to a low resolution that should display fine on all TVs with an HDMI input. Check around the back of the console to make sure your HDMI cable is still connected, and check the same cable is connected to the TV as well.Īnother possibility is that your console is sending a signal that your TV cannot display, for example at a 4K resolution or 120Hz refresh rate.
