XBOX One jerky - you can do that
A hardware defect, outdated software or a missing system update - all of these can cause the XBOX One to jerk. This practical tip shows you how to bring performance back into the console.
You can do that if the XBOX One is jerky
You quickly solved the problem with the following tricks:
- Make sure that the console is adequately ventilated. A closed TV rack, for example, is inconvenient.
- In addition, there should be no objects in front of the respective fans so that no hot air builds up around the console.
- If the console stutters only for a certain game, you should take a close look at the DVD of the respective game.
- If there are scratches or dirt here, you should try to clean them carefully with a cloth.
- The jerking may also be due to the game itself, for example if the game is very graphic-intensive.
- However, if this problem persists, there is probably a hardware problem.
XBOX One jerky - system and game updates
- A system update may help to eliminate the stuttering.
- All available updates can be found in the "Settings" of the console.
- An update of the respective game can also help. A game update will be downloaded automatically as soon as it is available. With new releases, it sometimes helps to be patient for a few days.
- If the updates don't help either, your hardware is probably damaged. In this case you should have the console replaced or repaired.
