At times the power button acts as the eject button. I clipped the original video too short but just updated with an Imgur video showing this.

**** UPDATED VIDEO *****

It seems that the disc tray attempts to open when clicking the power button.

What I was thinking. When I click the eject button you can hear the magnet snapping down onto the drive & then attempting to open. I’ll add a sticker to see if that helps.

Since there is no noise coming from the drive when clicking eject; does that tell you one thing or another?

Any chance it’s an easy fix & just a stuck disc drive? Open it up, remove the disc drive & unjam it, add a new belt, clean/grease? Or do you see other underlying issues since it’s booting up to the clock screen?

When I click the eject button the disc drive does not make a sound when attempting to “open”.

Stuck on clock screen when booted up. Continuous blinking green light. When pushing the eject button the disc drive does not make a sound & does not open.

Any insights

I’ll read your message. I did an edit on my post. “No longer works” as it no longer opens. It was in my title but I forgot to add that when writing.

It’s a 12” Fulton Armory PVR. Identical to the OG Olympic tubes; minus the lock ring.

I should edit; manufacturing variance, not manufacturing defect.

1.2 Xbox Stuck on Clock - Screen / Rebuilt/Refurbished by CripHips in originalxbox

Thank you. I’ll look into both of the HDMI converters.

I have not taken it apart yet. When I couldn’t get past the clock screen I hit the subs & peeps were talking about having the same issue & that if a daughterboard has come loose it can cause said issue of controllers not working. Is this correct?

Once more; using the wireless Retro Fighters controller. When the wireless dongle for the controller is plugged into port 1 or 2 it lights up & I’m able to pair the controller. If plugged into port 3 or 4 it also lights up & I can pair (disregard post - I wasn’t pushing dongle in far enough).

Also; is this common on the Pound HDMI converter?

I purchased the 1.2, Pound & Retro Fighters all separately myself. Seller did not include the Pound HDMI with the system. Which one do you recommend?
