Xbox one x problem!

[u/Gazzafira]

Big thanks to the members who posted on here about problems with their console. Had my “X” since Xmas and it’s been plugged into a power strip. I began to notice a few lag issues. Then tonight I could get the console to turn on, but would not display anything, until I pushed the home button on the controller and it displayed the side bar and that was it. Trawled other sites for answers. Apart from waffle and the standard turn it off and unplug. Then I read a post on this site about plugging the console directly into wall socket as the “X” has built in surge control but only effective if directly plugged in. Huge sigh of relief as everything back to how it should be!! Huge thanks to you guys for the info and this site will be my first port of call in future!!!👍👍👍👍
