Is it red and green, or orange and green?

It hasn't been modded, and it reads games only sometimes? Mybe the dvd-drive is dying, but then you wouldn;t get a black screen. The screen is black, no error or anything? Is there audio?

well, this is new to me. It's not an HDD or dvd-rom problem, because it gives error messages if those are busted. Power seems to be ok. My only guess would be that something on the mobo corrupted somehow. Could be something wrong with the video jack on the board. I have no clue.

Well, it could be, but if you have never opened the box before this problem happened, it is highly unlikely. Something could have also overheated and busted that way.

I'm not sure, usually xbox break after people mess with them, not before lol. Hmm, stock xbox's usually break from the following things:
-power supply blown
-HDD died
-dvd died
-collision damage
-overheating (which cause parts to fry)
-damaged ports from shoving/stuffing and yanking cords in/out


I would rule out the HDD if you can hear it, or you don't get the error 07 on the screen. DVD-rom is not likely. There is an error, but usually they just stop reading or the trey stops opening when they break.

I doubt it is collision damaged. The power supply may have been damaged. POwer go out rescently or breakers blow? Do you smell anything funny when you are by the xbox and it has been on for a couple minutes? If it has or you do smell something, then the power supply may have a problem, and isn't completely powering up the xbox properly. Overheating is probably what I would say, although, it is hard to tell since the xbox is not in front of me. Damaged ports, well, it probably wouldn't blink red/green if that was the case. I doubt it is internal wires.

Although, don't rule out bugs. There was an image on llama.com of how a lizard, and a ****roach kamekaze'd an xbox by frying it lol. check out llama.com. browse the site as they have info that can help.
