    I need help with PS3 problem!

    Okay, so I have had this problem before. I did a regular system update for the ps3 and then the game just freezes basically. i use an hdmi, and it just doesnt work now (wouldnt load all the way). so i tried resetting the ps3 but that didnt work because i still cant see anything, even with the basic audio/video chords! what do i do???

    Disconnect the ps3 from everything, including the power cable. And then try using the basic av cables.

    Do you still have warranty?

    Have you tried resetting the video resolution on the PS3?? Sounds alot like what happened to me anyway, here's what you do..put your PS3 in standby mode (showing only the red light) hold down the "on" button on your PS3 for about 5 seconds until you hear a beep. This will reset your video resolution and hopefully resolve your problem.

    After you do this, connect your PS3 using the standard AV cables just to check if its working (which it should be)

    Have a look also in the PS3 guide book thingy, should be some info there aswell
