Screen Turns Purple On Dash Often
« on: December 19, 2010, 06:20:00 AM »

When it flicks between video sources (like opening a video and it changing resolutions etc) sometimes it goes completely purple, and everything else that opens is purple. The only way to fix this is rebooting the console, but it's happening more often now (like a few times a month).

Is it the GPU dying very slowly or something else?

I've got it running through HDMI on a Panasonic 40" Plasma, and it's happened to my other consoles in the past (which all died also).

Sounds like an idea, but when it goes back to the dash, it's fine, not purple, it's just on videos?
