Is it the original xbox or 360? I'm guessing 360.

Thanks for the link. People were saying to turn off the xbox by the wall, but I'm going to leave it on again tonight to see if it happens again. The person who made that thread said that it kept happing, but it's only happened the once with me. The rest were stupid answers, like ghosts and stuff.

no problem. That might be the only way to solve it is to unplug it if it keeps happening. another post said something about the connection from the xbox to TV.

If it were a technical problem then it should happen again, right? Or it might of been just a one time thing.

If it was a problem it would keep happening. Maybe a remote woke it up or something. If it doesn't happen again don't worry about it.
