What causes random freeze and shutdown
Hi all i purchased a cheap xbox one s as i only game on the odd weekend and recently the xbox has started freezing and shutting down.
The console freezes making a sound for 4 or 5 seconds then shuts down but will power back up straight away and work fine.
I have tried a known good power supply and cleaned and reapplied thermal compound and also reset console what is puzzling me is its totally random i can switch it on and it will do this within 15 minutes then another day i can game for a couple of hours with no issues its done it on several different games and once just on the main menu ?????
I didnt pay a lot for the xbox so am not too worried about trying any ideas you guys can put forward its more a pride thing now
Quick update have just run the xbox stripped down with a 14inch fan blowing on full and the same thing happened so im pretty sure its not heat related.
Es esta una buena pregunta?

Thanks for the reply
Xbox is plugged direct to socket and no error codes have ever shown. Internals are nice and clean including fin stack on heatsink and fan is working fine spins up as it should with no strange noise . When i got the xbox it worked fine and has done for almost 6 months.
What is puzzling me is if it is power delivery related why so random only time i have had anything like this is on pc which was always heat or voltage related but has been regular and i have been able to reproduce fault by stressing the system but with the xbox its got me beat.
