Title: Getting A Grey Screen With Component Cables
Post by: RiouTheBrightShieldHero on July 10, 2007, 07:39:00 PM

Im sure this is a common occurance, but I was wondering if anyone could explain to me why it does this? I dont believe my TV is HD, but my 360 and PS3 run fine with the component cables, why wont my XBOX?

To my knowledge, the cables work fine with my PS3 and 360.

On the dash where you can set the video modes, the 480p and other options are greyed out and unselectable.

Any solution to this?  I'm having the same grey screen issues with component cables (others are fine) and I cannot set the resolutions to 480p, 720p, or 1080i in the MS Dashboard.  The cable is one of the universal ones which allows for connectivity to a PS2/360/and original Xbox.  The cable works fine with the other two consoles.
