i'm in the fortunate enough postion to have a ps3, 3360 and the wii. they are all connected to the same t.v.

360 via vga, ps3 via the hdmi and the will via a normal scart lead.

Recently my 360 had the dreaded ring problem. When i got it back from being fixed frustratingly there was another problem with it so i sent it back to get fixed and it turns out that there was a problem with the motherboard.

The problem is now that when i turn the 360 on it frezes my telly, by this no button will work and notheing appears on the screen. in the past before i got it fixed the first time thiss never happened. Then when i got it back from being fixed the first time this would happen but i'd take the plug out of the telly and put it back in in which case the telly and 360 would now operate properly. However now i took the plug out but when i put it back in the telly would not come back on, it remains on standby.

Now do you think it's a problem with the telly or perhaps because i have to many connections into the telly

any theoryies would be appeciated. thanks

Your vga input could be faulty so I wouldtry plugging your 360 in via component inputs instead of vga. If that doesn't work then your Xbox might need to be sent in for repair again.

I had the freezing problem when i first got my 360, and then i got 3 red rings shortly after, so probably time to send it back
