New Xbox, GREEN SCREEN WTF?

I literally got my XBox 360 4 hours ago and I set it all up, I get a green screen. I'ma guess I set my video cords wrong, I have the red, yellow, and white cord and the other green, blue, and red cord... Kinda confusing. HELPNew Xbox, GREEN SCREEN WTF?
it sounds like it is set wrong. i think it is because of the two red ones switch those around. u should have the three color cords together if u know what i mean. don't have the red (with HD ones) in the standard red one.New Xbox, GREEN SCREEN WTF?
Read the manual.

If you mean that the two red cords are mixed up, they aren't. I just really want this green thing to go away. I mean, its a new xbox 360, how is there already a problem?
Okay, I looked in the back of tv. My cords are plugged into the HD Input - AV4 The standard ones are plugged in there too.
that happened to me also ma first time:P

You're only supposed to use one set of cables; either, Red/Yellow/White for SD or Green/Blue/Red for HD.
My tv is hd, what order do I put the cords in with the green, blue, and red cords

But his didn't display anything... so I have no idea what the green screen means...
[QUOTE=''Palpablecheese'']My tv is hd, what order do I put the cords in with the green, blue, and red cords[/QUOTE]Um... the colors of the sockets... Blue to Blue, Red to Red... etc...?
[QUOTE=''Palpablecheese'']My tv is hd, what order do I put the cords in with the green, blue, and red cords[/QUOTE]There is no order, just match the cable colours to the colour outlets on your HDTV. Also, on the big plug that you connect to the back of your Xbox 360, make sure you have the little switch on HD.
