hello, everyone, I am new to this server and i have had a problem with my Xbox 1 S. basically i have had a no signal problem and tried everything, different tv, different HDMI, power cord, etc. i unplugged the hard drive and turned it on and it got me to a trouble shooting menu so I know it's not the HDMI. I tried updating it via usb but i need my hard drive plugged in for that but as soon as I plugged it in the Xbox cuts off.
