Well i have a problem kind of the same, i just bought a 360 elite its only a few months old. When i turn the xbox on the green light only comes on in the middle the green lights do not spin around the center light, and i have no sound and the video doesnt come on but the cd rom tray comes out. If i turn it off and on a few times sometimes up to 10 times then it comes on and i can play and have no problems once it turns on. The problem is only when i try to turn it on the next day after i played that night it wont turn on only the center green light. any help with this problem would be awesome thanks...
I have been following this forum for like 2 months now waiting for someone to finally find a solution for this problem. My xbox 360 is like 3 years old and i Used to have the same problem. I tried everything and finaly came up with the solution to MY xbox360. The problem was getting worst and worst. 2 weaks ago i used to be able to play only 10 min. SOLUTIoN: . I cleaned the inside of my xbox and place a fan behind my xbox360 that blows air directly to the little holes on the back of the xbox and i tested it for 2 weeks and no problem since then.
i guess mine just gets too heated and turns off
here you guys have the answer for your big ? marks:)
wy the flashing green light in the middle of the ring is showing and you cant play any games with DvD drive is because the power cable to the DvD Rom is flicking or broken!!!
i got 3 red flashing lights on my modded 360 and got real mad (for the 5th time:P) so i tryed to plug out the power cable for the DvD Rom and restarted the xbox. after that i saw that the middle green light was flashing.
(btw 3 red lights flashing is that ether your power supply is broken or geting power spikes or it is your firmware that crashes)

hope this helps ppl;)... peace out!!!
This doesn't help. 3 red lights flashing can mean anything, and the flashing green light isn't necessarily because the power cable in the dvd drive is bad.
Hey everyone,
Yesterday I got me Xbox 360 modded and the guy who modded it said that the modding process takes longer because it is a Liteon or Lit-on, or something flash drive. When I took my console home and plug it in, the centre power light on the console was blinking and when I got to the disc menu on screen, it said the disc drive is opening.
Is it the modding that cause the console to react as it is?
because it worked perfectly fine before yesterday and this is the first time I saw it happen, so I was wondering did the person that modded the console do something wrong when he flashed it?
yes, let me tell u that person who modded your console did something wrong, this happened to my a couple of months ago...
i bought a used xbox 360, the first problem i had, was NO EJECT DRIVE, wich i fixed cleaning the drive, with the help of a video from Youtube...
now that my xbox was working well, i proceed with the mod, so here comes the problem, when it was ERASING/WRITING the firmware, the software froze, and i had to re-open the program, the my drive was undetectable, i conect the xbox and E65 Error... with the center green light blinking...
after that i suppose it was the drive, but i didnt buy a new drive, just the PCB board for the drive, i conected it... and detected the new board... check my xbox... and here's all problems...
in dashboard i had OPENING, and blinking center light again... press eject, and nothing, open manually, and after opened it close alone, and again the OPENING message...
now, i was checking the xbox and i have the restart problem too, but what i see, is that with the minimal movement on the POWER CABLE... restarts... so, now im groing to buy new POWER AND SATA Cables... and see if my problem is solved... couse i send it to an "expert" and nothing...
but... lannyk, u can be sure, to go with this guy and claim a new xbox... it was his fault...
