WTF!?!?!

 I turned my 360 on this morning, and now there's NO COLOUR. Just black & white. The image is otherwise fine! I've tried different output cables, different channels and TV inputs - I've pretty much tried every possible combination that I can to troubleshoot this, but to no avail.

Anyone have any ideas? Please?

try the cable that connects into the back of the xbox... like.. try pushing it in more- perhaps it has become loose?

If the TV is working fine on cable, then the problem is the A/V cable.

this happened to me oncei was using the high defintion cables and one of them was loose into the projector, just try moving them around because if they are at a sharp angle going into the tv they may of become frayed on the inside and will no longer work properly at their current position.

Nope. Doesn't work. My xbox hasn't been moved (or even bumped) since I got it 6 months ago. So i can't see why this would be a physical cabling problem. Any other ideas?!?!?

It sounds like either the cable(s) that carry the color information to the TV are caput, or the actual output for color is friked.

It does it with both the standrd Red/White/yellow cables too? Because that doesn't split the color and B&W (and I could be waaay off on that), so if its stil B&W, then call MS.
