Title: Xbox Won't Turn Off!
Post by: brnat on February 02, 2020, 07:06:00 PM

Ok, my Xbox WILL NOT TURN OFF!!
I have taken it apart and checked the switches, and they're fine. Which makes me think it may be a BIOS problem or something. It only turns off when I unplug it (bad for linux mod) and when I plug it in it automatically turns on. What can I do?
