Hi,
This is usually a simple fix.
you have either a problem with the AV output cable. From xbox to red-white-yellow. or scart.
the other suggestion, is that your television is set to view n.t.s.c and the console is region 2 pal. or vice-versa.
Try a different output cable, or try the cable in a different socket on the TV, if you have a spare Input. Also remove the cable from Xbox and tv end. and check for dust/debris and blow out, or clean with a cotton bud/swab, lightly soaked with white-spirit. or lighter fluid ( petrol ) lightly dampened not soaking.

hope this solution helps to resolve your problems.

regards Mike @ Compurepair.
