Top 20 Sony PlayStation® 3 (60 GB) Console Questions & Answers

This seems to be a problem with GT6 that many people have experienced. Maybe stick to 5 or find a way to play Forza.

1. In the PS3's XMB, go to the left and select Settings. 2. In Settings, go into SoundSettings. 3. Select Audio Output Settings, and select the type of cable you use. 4. The next page will give you an option for Automatic or Manual. Select Manual. 5. The next page will give you a list of all the audio settings the PS3 can output. Unselect every option except the ones grayed out, which are required. 6. The next page will ask you to confirm the selections, say yes. 7. (OPTIONAL) For those using HDMI cables, now that we have set them to default settings, we can actually start the process over again, but instead of selecting Manual we will select Automatic. This will force the PS3 to scan the devices again and set up the correct list of output modes.

when you reflow the chip do you put the copper plate in after as if you have to keep reflowing the chip sounds like you have not fitted it. its a copper square plate. heatsink paste on both sides and screw down after resinked.

try with another HDMI cable. also, is your ps3 connected to the net? some newer bluray support functions that are not available on the player and they need an update. given how old the ps3 is, it may not fully support playback.

A potentially failing hard drive. You can swap it out (and upgrade your storage capacity) for a reasonable price. Could be the optical drive as well, but that's a little bit harder than swapping out the hard drive.

just go into settings display and you will find all that you need there

There are two solutions. You could use YouTube videos to open it up and retrieve it yourself. I have done it myself and it is quite easy, however, you may void your warranty. Or you could send it into Sony to get it removed without voiding your warranty. This will likely come at a price though.

i had this problem once it's a pain. sorry to say this but your unit is corrupted you have to restore it thus losing all your data.

Just swap out cable for known good PS3 Component Video Cable.

maybe you are putting the key wrong, anyway here's a quick one for you get a broadband cable and hook up your console to the router, this will guarantee you a more stable connection.

You should bring it in somewhere to get repaired. There are videos on youtube that might tell you how to fix it, but then you'll void your warranty.
