video glitch with 360

Gerard · 2 Sep 2006 at 18:05

Got my premium one yesterday, ben running it through a vga cable on my 2005fpw. Only problem im having is occasionally the scren will go black for a few seconds then come back on, hapens wwhen im playing games or in the dashoard. The vvga cable i have is a "4gamers" version seeing as i cant get a hold of an official one till tomorrow, is it likely the cable is at fault or something else?

Does sound like the cable may be an issue... try the 360 on a TV if you can.

mines used to do that too. Totally random, sometimes it would do it a few times in a session and sometimes it wouldnt do it at all.
I have a joytech VGA and same monitor. Totally forgot that that used to happen

Anyone else have problems with the dvd drive? Sometimes i'll tell it to eject either in the dashboard or by pressing the button and it seems to make a sound lke its opening, then a second or 2 later make another sound like its closing then it tries to read the disc. :mad:

sounds a big buggered to me. Have you tried it on a normal TV yet? If you're getting problems with the drive, I'd return it and get a replacement.

Yep I had that.

Take it back, I did.
