Xbox360 Usb Hdd Problem

There's definitely interference. What video cable are you using and what type of television is it?

You're not crossing the power and video cables, are you?

If an analog cable and power cable go side-by-side, that will cause interference. Composite is analog, so having it next to a power cable will mess it up.

Is your power source dirty?

What do you mean, dirty? I'm sure there might be undesired signal crawling there due to AC/DC conversion.


I placed a ferrit bead on the usb cable, without succes. Next I'll try getting a ferrit core for the power cable (which is thicker then the USB cable).
