SickVoodoo Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 I pulled out my old modded Xbox to pass some time while stuck at home. Unfortunately after the boot screen I get nothing but white lines dancing around the screen. I disassembled and cleaned everything, tried unplugging everything from the tv and Xbox. Any ideas on my next step to get this thing running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDShadow Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 That board is hideously caked with dust so could be bridged traces anywhere. However the top pic distorted though it is doesn't appear to be a typical error screen, it looks much more like a video output/resolution issue so it could be that. What connection cable are you using? If you do what it says: swap between Video (presumably AV Composite) and Component is there any change? Do you have a standard Xbox AV Composite cable that can be used with that TV or another? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prtscn Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 do you have boot sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_Dave Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Hello SickVoodoo I have not seen the happen since VCR's where the thing to have. Have you tested it on a different tv/screen? Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It get's the job done but it's nothing like the real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SickVoodoo Posted March 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 I get clear boot screen and sound I did clean the board I haven’t tried a new tv yet, I don’t own one with analog connections. Lol The Xbox is hooked up threw Panasonic two jack adapter. I believe it’s working here before. I will try and find a tv with regular analog connections and test. thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosEngineer Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 So, you are using a high-definition AV pack or cable with Red/Green/Blue component video signals and Red/White analog audio connected to your TV? Try the following: Press and hold the Left trigger, right trigger, and both analog stick buttons. The normally displayed 480i dashboard will switch to 480p output while using the Xbox High Definition AV Pack or cable. Repeat the button combo to toggle between the two resolutions: 480i and 480p. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDShadow Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Looks like it could be yet another of those combined Video(Yellow)/Component (Green) input issues. Never seen a dual jack plug like that before: 3.5mm audio and RCA/Phono presumably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer187 Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 i just tried starting up a new one and same thing. Hooked up with official component cables. Sony SDTV. They work fine on my other xbox. Flubber screen works fine but the dashboard is the same distortion you have. I put in a halo disc and it loads fine but it says there is no hdd space available. Did you ever fix your issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
