    xbox 360

    Accidently changed a video setting i think. Was cleaning controller all the sudden screen got weird colored my dumb first thing to do was turn off the 360. Now my 360 has a black screen i can hear audio and it makes a fuzzy thing when it starts up then the rest is in black. I'm just curious if anyone knows what I changed and how to change it back with a black screen.

    Is the cable plugging into the back of your Xbox 360 set to the right setting? There's a little switch on it that will change the output depending on what it's moved to.

    You can try holding Y when turning it on and it should return things to default.

    Also try connecting it to another television to see what happens

    I dont know what setting to change. I went to display and all there was were HDTV options. It said I was on standard TV though but it said 420p :/

    420 or 480? 480 is standard CRT settings as far as I know. What'd you mean without the hard drive btw?

    this same exact thing happened to me two weeks ago and I bourght it in to gamestop and had em look at it... guess what my problem was?
    spoiler tagged it for my noobness

    Spoiler: show
    the HDMI cable got loose. don't ask me HOW it happened at the exact same time the video settings changed. But I think if the HDMI cable isnt secure, and you change video settings, then it won't work. So go check ur cord!
