    Ok as the title suggests iv got a feeling my xbox is failing on me yet again for the third time.Iv had 2 red rings so far but this seems different..

    Just to clarify,it is not a red ring yet..

    Anyway it seems be a problem with my hdmi connection..

    Two days ago i first noticed the problem,the display looks very fuzzy,blocky and cartoony..I left it for a day when i saw it and it worked again..i left my xbox for an hour and when i came back it was fuzzy again..

    I tried the component cable and that seems to work perfectly..for example:
    5pm: hdmi - fuzzy
    5.05: component - perfect
    5.10: hdmi - fuzzy again

    Its not the hdmi cable because i tried the cable on another console,and also tried another hdmi cable on my xbox but to no avail.

    Did anyone ever have the same problem because id nearly leave xbox if only for the 100e's i spent on xbla games.

    The picture kinda looks like this but in a bad way

    i understand its better to use hdmi in some cases but if it works with component then whats the problem there at least you can keep using it if needs be.

    also make sure all the settings on it are fine and also make sure its not a damaged pin on the input of the xbox or tv for that matter.

    any chance you can try the xbox on a difference tv.

    also if its in warranty(you can check online if it is). just send it back to microsoft and get it fixed.

    Sounds like a problem with the HD output on the console itself, in which case as mentioned, back to MS for repair
