What is wrong with my Xbox 360 Console?

Question

Yeah I own an Xbox 360 console. I would start to play a game, the menus and everything were fine, the game play was the problem, when I started to play everything was inverted, not the colors but the people and objects were basically inside out and stretched out, so I'm pretty sure it would be a problem with my video card? I recently took it to a game shop and they looked at it, replaced the drive which made a new problem, you would put in a 360 game and it would say it is not a 360 game and had different languages pop up. The person working on my 360 now is going to put in my old drive and give it back to me Thursday. I will probably try to call or send my 360 into Microsoft to see if they can look at it or fix it. Has anyone had a similar problem or know a good website and Xbox 360 troubleshooting. Also are you able to mail consoles to Microsoft and they will repair then charge you? Also I do NOT have a warrentee... Which I deeply regret as of now.

Answer 1

its not your xbox 360 that was causing your problem it was probably just the tv so instead of putting it in the video one outlets you should have just tried the video 2 outlets but now that u have fooled with hard drive it still might not work

p.s. good luck with your xbox problem

Answer 2

well, since you are not currently a holder of a warranty, i would first reccomend a lense cleaner. when and if the problem persists, clean your discs. When all else fails, remove the hard drive and use it with someone else's 360. you can buy a used 360 (without its HD) for about 170 USD

Answer 3

there can be several things wrong with your 360 but the simplest one and easiest one to fix is you can just have it on hd settings and be playing on a normal tv, that would cause picture problems. And without a warrenty its gonna cost alot to fix it. So hope that the guy fixes it for you. But reseach before spending your money, go on www.teamxbox.com and talk to people they can help you.
