Ok, try going through all the different video cables till one works, same as the ps3 you have to go into the setting and tell the 360 what type of video setting you want to use, once you find the one that is active then you can go into the setting and change it around - if you have already tried this then the video processor is fried and you need a tek to fix,

how to connect the 360 to the Live
network. Before you do anything you are going to need to decide
how you plan on connecting the bad boy. The 360 supports both wired and
wireless connections. In order to use a wireless connection you will
need the Xbox 360 Wireless adapter. Personally I find the wireless
connection to be a bit too temperamental for my liking so I go with a
wired connection via a router, but not everyone has the same wireless
experience. To set up the connection via a router unplug the
router and the modem and turn off the 360. Connect an Ethernet cable to
one of the out ports of the preexisting router then connect the cord to
the back of your 360. Plug everything back in and turn and give the
modem and router about 3 minutes to reboot. Once you have given
everything a few minutes to reboot you can turn the 360 back on. If you
have already set up a gamer profile you will see the Xbox Live screen.
If you have not set up an account you will be prompted to do so. All you
need to do is follow the on screen instructions. It is a pretty cut and
dry process and should not take more than 10 minutes of your time.

If you want to go wireless or you must go wireless you will need to get the Xbox360 wireless network adapter. The adapters are available at most stores that sell 360 games or you can order it online. Once you have the adapter unplug any Ethernet cable you might have plugged into the 360 then clip the Network adapter to the back of the 360. It is really easy to see where it belongs, but just in case, the adapter will sit right alongside the USB port which is right above the Ethernet port. Once you have clipped it in plug the USB cable that is attached to the adapter into the port on the Xbox 360. Flip up the antenna that is laying flat against the adapter and you are set, well almost set.
Turn on the 360 and head into the System tray. You will see Network options, go ahead into that screen and follow it through to the "Edit Settings" subcategory. The Network name should appear on a list of available networks. Select your network and enter the password, if there is a password. Exit out and you should be ready to play.
I know this might sound like annoying tech support but unplug your
enthernet cord from your xbox and unplug your modem and router(if you
have one) for about 5 minutes and plug everything back into
everything..make sure your 360 is off.

Hi,
Are you using hdmi cable. If so your hdtv needs to have it's hdmi port reset .First unplug everything even the TV and xbox. Then disconnect everything and unplug every thing from the wall outlets. Then plug the TV back in and hook everything back up. The HDTV even with the power off can have it's hdmi port bumped so you need to unplug it to reset the ports.
Thank you
Try unplugging everything and letting it sit for a few minutes. 10 is a good safe number. Plug everything back in and try again. If this doesn't work, you have a serious issue that microsoft needs to address and fix.
try this. unplug everything (power cord, av cables, wireless adapter, controllers) and take off the hard drive. dont plug anything in for about 1-2 minutes. when the time is up, put the hard drive on first then plug everything else in.
already solved it. thanks. i couldn't see the xbox settings blade because of the blank screen so switched my component cable to the tv setting instead of the hdtv setting, then i could see the dashboard in non-hd and switched the resolution to 720p while simultaneously switching the component cable back to the hdtv setting. that worked.
Hello.
This is a common problem from the Xbox 360.
The only way to fix this problem is to call Microsoft or email them. Its something to do with the hardware failure. Its over heated. Their is one way to fix it but temporary.
Its called the towel trick.
First, Unplug your xbox.
Then wrap it around with Heavy towels dont expose anything on the xbox 360. Cover everything.
Then plug in the xbox 360 while the towels are around it. After you do all that you wait 15 minutes. Then unwrap the towel from the xbox 360. It should be very hot. Let it cool down for 2 minutes then plug everything in and it should work.
But I hope this helps you.
