I had the 360 powered on to play rock band and when i plugged in the usb guitars to the console the screen kind of scrammbled so i turned off the 360 and when i went to turn it back on it does not have any power. i unplugged the two guitars and noticed that one of the usb ports on the 360 was missing the pad inside of it and one of the pieces of metal is bent. the power brick has a yellow indicator light on. the power button, eject button, or controller will not turn it on.

thats because one of the usb pins is bent and touching the metal, creating an earth and shorting out.
take the front panel off and with some tweasers straighten out the pins to how they should be.
i bet you a beer it will work after you do this ;)
