I just moved into a college dorm and besides the wireless internet not working properly yet and wired connection to the 360 not allowing me to play online, I am having a problem where the screen is tinted green. For example the Dashboard is purple and blue on the memory and media tabs like it is supposed to be but the games, LIVE, and marketplace are all green. We tried watching a DivX movie yesterday and pretty much everything, including people were green. I put it a game and it is green. We tried changing the cables to the second set of component and AV cables in the back of the TV since I have two sets of receptors in the back of the TV but that didnt change anything. We hooked up cable to the TV though and all the colors work fine. Any Clues?

AV Cables could be broken. TV could have broke. That's all I can think of

ahh! don't remind me

i had that when i finally hooked my 360 to an lcd monitor. i tried everything, switching cables ect...

i ended up taking my 360 into gamestop with my monitor i was using, plugged my monitor into one of their systems and it worked. tried it on mine in the store, green. they gave me a new 360, well i payed $50 for my warranty but...

but in your case it's probably the wires if you're not trying anything new with hardware

make certain you have the cables in the right places, especially the red cable which can be confused with the red audio. I made this mistake before when plugging a DVD player in and it gave a similar picture as it was lacking one colour

Haha Thats just what I did!!! since there were so many connections in the back of the TV and I couldnt tell what was what besides color, I accidently connected a Red Audio cable into a Red Component plug and the Red Component cable was in a Red Audio input therefore only blue and green colors would show up lol.
