Turn on the console by using your controller. To do this, press and hold the controller's Xbox Guide button until your console turns on.

Note If multiple controllers are connected to your console, make sure that you use the player one controller. You can recognize the player one controller because the upper-left quadrant of the Guide button is lit up on that controller.

While the console is starting, press and hold the Y button and pull the right trigger at the same time. Continue holding the buttons when you see the Xbox 360 logo.

The console will restart and you will see the Xbox 360 logo again.
The console's display settings are now reset to the defaults.
Some extra peripherals are not compatible with the new, slimmer 360, as it contains a different motherboard and other various changes. Also, see if there is an update required for the game, which would potentially allow the system to recognize your game pad.
If by "Doesn't connect to the PC" you mean won't play games, it's because only new games can use the 360 controllers as it doesn't use the DirectX input, but uses XInput instead.
There are supposed to be solutions, sometimes through updates for the games (an example in reverse was an update for GTAIV, which allowed the use of the older DirectX joypads.) I've also seen software (switchblade) that allows various pads to work with RPGs. Not too sure if that would be suitable for you though.
Since I have both types of controller (both X360 and a Saitek Pad) I've never had to resort to any other fixes.
this is normal with the stock xbox fans, what i did was to get XCM High Speed Air Cooler
v2.0 for Xbox 360. since that come with its own lcd display and u can control the fans inside. makes it really quiet. hope this helps
I had same problem..if u have a dance pad with foam inserts....take out the insert and try to start up without them....the problem we had is one of the inserts was putting pressure on one of the buttons preventing xbox from reading pad...if u don't have inserts one of your buttons is sticking...give it a shake and try again....we fixed ours by simply rearranging the inserts...hope this was helpful
