My friend as me to look at his 360, it's the Red Elite, it's just over a year old now and will not turn on, no more warranty. The power supply is fine because I tried it on two other 360s and it powers them. Any one have any ideas on how to fix this? He said there were no red lights, it just would not turn on.

Thanks for the info. I looked a little more into and turns out it was the usb port, a piece of metal was touching and apparently that cause it not to turn on lol Oh well, fixed now.

Glad you found your solution, I posted on this very same topic a little over a week ago. If the console does not power on, check all the sockets for shorts...usually a bent pin or two.

"All drives should be updated to Lite Touch + (LT+) firmware if playing on XBOX live. Samsung drives and pre-78/79 Hitachi drives do not utilize AP 2.5. All other drives are considered to be detectable by Microsoft (YMMV). Make sure all rips are ABGX verified, contain SSv2, and patched AP2.5 (where needed). XGD3 must currently be burned on new drive with PC Burner Max firmware for 100% rip. All modded consoles can be potentially unsafe for use on XBOX live."
