My Xbox360's power light turns red and wontwon't display anything

Ok so at firstFirst when I would go to turn the Xbox on the light was just a single red dot. I couldn't connect the controller, the tray wouldn't open, and nothing was being displayed on the screen. I unplugged everything and in the process noticed the power adapter light wasn't on so I switched out the cord that connects to the outlet with a new one and the adapter was working again, I turned the Xbox on again and this time the light went on green and I could open the disc tray, but the controller and display were still not working properly. The light would then switch back to red after a minute or so. I also tried using another HDMI and monitor to no avail. 

Is there still something wrong with the adapter or is my Xbox toast? I have about $200 worth of games downloaded on to the Xbox so if this is a fixable problem and I don't have to get a new device that'd be great and please let me know.
