The Xbox is softmodded and the video is set to 480i non-widescreen. Any idea why it might not be outputting?

People gravitate towards what brands they trust, and you get some like Trinitrons and D-Series that are always getting hyped up....
I have tinnitus and could never stand CRT whine. But I'd like to get one for classic gaming if there was such a thing as a silent crt.
