My brothers xbox turns on but then not even 30 seconds later it turns off. the power supply light is half green, half red. Anyone know whats wrong? xbox support is no help. hes getting games for Christmas and it'd suck if he had to wait awhile to play them.

No red lights on the Xbox itself? Sounds to me like the power supply, but I could be wrong.

Try taking off the hard drive and reattaching it.

Do the lights alternate/swap places?
