i went to go play some good ol NHL 08 on my 360 a little bit ago, and when i turn it on, all i experience is sound, but no video on my TV.

yes i did check to see if TV was selected on my audio cable and made sure it was plugged in correctly. i tried a different TV and the same thing happened. i read online you could reset the Video settings for the 360, so i tried that and no dice. there are no red rings flashing on the console either.

my 360 is flashed and has never given me any problems. when i played it 2 days ago, everything was fine, so i dont know what’s going on.

im gonna go somewhere and test out another audio/video cable to see if it’s just the cable, which i obviously hope is the problem.

i may end up trying the xclamp replacement and go to home depot and get all the shit for it.

anyone experience this and/or know a solution?? thanks

With no red lights its probably not the cable, i believe one lights up if the video is bad, not sure which tho. Have you tried regular non HD cables? I have the parts if you want them, i did the x-clamp with my old 360 and it didn’t fix it, so you can have them if you want to give it a shot. LMK. Most likely if no other cables work its shot, theres a place i got mine from that repairs them for 100 bucks. [http://www.360-pros.com/](http://www.360-pros.com/)

no one reads up on a system before they buy them… 360’s have a horrible success rate. they crap out fast and often.
