I have a XBOX 360 purchased from MS In Nov 2012. It has always been stock. It has no hard drive and I do not recall ever using the DVD player. I only used it as a linked TV box for windows 7 and 8 media center. I have a HDhomrun that works with a cable card. That is all I used it for .. no games .. no DVD playing. MS makes you create a profile on start up and when I plugged it in today it updated itself and showed that profile name.

It has sat in storage for the last three years and I want to give it to somebody but I want to set it back to factory settings. I have followed various you tube online instructions and there are a bunch of steps. But I don't have a hard drive to format. I have cleared the cache, removed my profile, removed family settings. And yet when I turn it on it starts looking for media center. There must be an easy way to clear this thing off and reset it back to factory settings so it starts up like a new device?
