GENERAL After flash The psu shows Red Light?

[Gamers]

I did a flash everything was good for like 2 hours playing ufc 2010, then my controller cut of about 2 times, then the xbox just turns of when i try to turn it back on the psu unit shows a solid red light.

I toyed it in another xbox it works fine.

ive tried different plugs, seems to be a problem with the xbox, but it was playing fine for hours? and there is no rrod on the xbox.

I dont know whats going on, help?

From my experience this would have to be some kind of short in your system.

Most likely a short in some place or a flaky cable take the motherboard out of the chassis and sit it on something non conductive and attempt to boot make sure to reset psu so the red light fades and test. Also I had a box that was doing something similar it synced controllers fine an then all together stopped after a few disconnects occasional red light on psu replaced it and problem solved.

Troubleshoot with this first method I suggested this will make sure nothing is shorting on the chassis.

There is no sparks or anything

they don't mean sparks - they mean check for things like - bent pins grounding on the USB ports or - when you had it open for the flash, have you knocked something that could be shorting out to a ground or something like that
