What is the best way to boot the xbox?
When I power it on with the controller or infrared remote control, it stays at the black screen and doesn't boot +/- 5 times out of 10.
When I boot him with the power-button on the console it boots all the time within 5 secs!

Changed the green and blue wires with shielded coax and it stays the same.

Is it normal?

I always power mine with the power button and 9/10, it boots on the first glitch pulse.

However, I have noticed a slight delay if my display isn't set to HDMI when I power on or when there is a USB device connected but otherwise, it works flawlessly.

Same here i always boot with the power button now when i used the controller it wouldn't boot sometimes.

Without a doubt, it seems to boot better from the power button.

Also as stated above. If my TV is on the Set top box, and i power on the 360, it seems that until i turn to the correct HMDI channel it won't boot. Sometimes it will, but more often than not, it will just keep glitching till i change channel.

Ok thanks. I thought there was something wrong with the coolrunner.
I still wonder what's the difference between booting with the power button and the controller.....
