Just got an xbox off my buddy and there is no power at all, I replaced the fuse and still nothing, the power supply gets warm after bein plugged in so there is power goin through it, just nothin turns on...Its a 1.0, and when i got it i noticed it had been opened before,....any help appreciated, thanks!!!
Maybe the power supply is done for. Even if it's broken, it could still get hot. Do you or a friend have a 1.0 xbox power supply with which you could check to see if this is the problem? Otherwise there could be something wrong with the motherboard. I know if a capacitor comes off, or basically anything else for that matter, the xbox won't start.
I would try a new power supply, but it could be a number of other things beyond that. Anyways, check out this site, it will help you out a lot! http://www.llamma.com/xbox/Repairs/power_supply_failure.htm
Is there anyway to test the power supply to see if its the problem, other then putting another working one in?, because i'm not sure if I know anyone with a compatable one....
I am sure you can test it, but I have never had to do it before. I'm sure there are some Xbox gurus on http://www.xbox-scene.com forums that can help you out w/ testing the power supply.
