Cannot get the television to get out of fuzzy screen

I have a Magnavox television and I cant get it out of the fuzzy screen. I play my xbox 360 on it and I was just turning it on and I accidentally pushed the change channel button on the remote. Right after I did that the tv went into the fuzzy screen you always see if you dont have cable. Ive tried everything and nothings worked. If anyone knows how to fix the tv to where I can play my xbox 360 again I'd appreciate it.

How do I fix a fuzzy screen

A fuzzy television screen is generally not the fault of the game console itself, but of your television.

The Xbox 360 is an HD game console, and from personal experience, trying to render an hd image in 480i Standard Definition will cause it to look somewhat fuzzy regardless of the television.


Just to make sure it is not the Xbox, I would, if possible, suggest you try the 360 on another television, preferrably with the HD cables (remember that there's a switch on the cable itself that you will need to switch from SD to HD).

Unfortunately, if you do not have access to a high def television, you can always fiddle with the contrast and sharpness on your standard def TV to reduce the fuzzyness, but the screen will always be somewhat fuzzy.

I realize this is probably not the answer you wanted, but to solve this problem for my own Xbox, I ended up purchasing an inexpensive HD Television.

Xbox 360 makes televison screen fuzzy and difficlt to see

Firstly check the system configuration blade on your Xbox 360 startup screen and check your display settings, if you've got an Xbox Elite/New Premium and have HDMI cable then it should be set as Intermediate/1080i/p settings, if you have the component cables then it should all be set as default.

If that isn't the problem and your games are still loading up with a fuzzy screen then there is either something wrong with the cables in your Xbox or your TV can't handle the graphics that the Xbox is producing and you will have to go into display settings and try setting them as either lower settings or higher settings depending on the TV you have.

It will help if you can provide details to me on your TV too, I'm not as good with TV's as I am Videogame Consoles/PC's but it will help me if I want to solve your queries further.
