    Hello , I have a question.

    Can I play the xbox one all digital fully offline, without the wi-fi card plugged into it ?

I replaced the power supply and my Xbox still isn't turning on. I used a power supply I got from this website. Please help

William Oliver -

Another issue could be the power button on the front power board. If possible, you could try to replace that as well.

Jules Hajjar -

replace the PSU and still boots up and shuts off
