Xbox Visuals not working?

My Xbox 360 is in fine working order (Except that we bought it used :P) I got it last Christmas, and it recently has been doing this:





The Xbox itself turns on and does it's thing. But when I unplug it from the wall, or a surge protector, and plug it into a different one it will turn on, like I said, but the TV will remain static.





Yes, The Av cables are plugged in properly.


Yes, everything plugged into the Xbox, including the Hard Drive is plugged in properly.


Yes, it's on the right channel.


Give me anything else to look for and I'll gladly look for it.



If you plug it back into the previously working plug, does the console work again?





If yes, then you have a faulty cabling in that other power plug.





It is possible that your console doesn't get enough power to function correctly




Sometimes things get screwy with the A/V cables so you could try plugging the yellow plug into all three seperatly and wait for video to pop up.





If that doesn't work you might have the HDTV slider switched to HD its on the connector that plugs into your Xbox.





If that doesn't work, go buy an another A/V cable or try another TV. If all those fail your outta luck. Your GPU (graphics processing unit) could be dead.




Sorry bad news, it's your GPU. You gotta get a new 360 or get it repaired. The same thing happend to my brother's. You can look on your local Craigslist (www.craigslist.com) there's usually people on there who can repair it for cheaper than usual. Thats where my brother found his repair man.
