I do not get a picture when playing a CD. My grandkids must have changed something when they were playing games on the TV. The CD indicates that it is playing, but the TV relflects what is on the chanel. It was OK prior to that. I have an older TV, but it used to work. My setup includes a RF Modulator. I have Directv

I like a race game for example race games https://www.topspeed.com/car-games/racing-games/ke3558.html

I need buy two Underworld Ascendant CDKeys on https://www.m8x.com/cdkeys/underworld-ascendant.html, one for me and other one for my brother

ill bet there's no source input , tvs are suppost to do this when there sources are cut off , makes for a sort of auto off feature if the grandkids/ kids don't remember to reselect the tv source when there done playing there video game console !! makes grand ma and pop scratch there heads after the grandkids go back home again "ill tell ya !!!!!! me and ma had to watch a bouncing bear dash across our tv for this exact reason for two days till our eight year old grandson whos a computer wiz ! came back over to visit !! ahh I wrote that one down hes not going to get me with that one again !!

Hm well i dont know about the pinky part but on the AV cable and the end part where it connects to the xbox 360 there is a switch which indicates wether its on TV or HDTV if your tv doesnt support HDTV and is switch to HDTV only sound is produced try flicking the switch upwards or downwards (in opposite direction it is. Hope this helped

Some TVs are incompatible with Wiis.

hi,
i Had the same problem with reading blue disks as well as the system will no longer read DVD's or DVD based games. Cleaned the heads with a DVD/CD cleaner and it worked for a couple of months and stopped again this past weekend. Found several threads on other sites indicating that if you contact Sony customer support and verify that: (1) you ran thru diagnostic mode (Page 9 in manual), you CD/DVD's work in another machine and aren't damaged, they'll fix it for free.

Contacted Sony yesterday, shipped the system to them in PA, and they are "waiving" the repair charges. There explaination is that since they aren't sure what's causing the problem with my system, they won't charge me for the repair. Shipping charges where $18.00 for UPS ground. It will probably take approx. 3 - 4 weeks to get the system back, but that's a huge savings over buying a new one or trading it in at EB Games for a new / refurbished one. They also will reinstate the 90 day warranty as well.


thank you,

I know for mac's it is a bit different.. on PC you can play an older game no problem but for some reason on mac you cannot?

I have a Macbook, and i tried to play Diablo 2... Yes very old game .. but since i was on mac OS 10.5 + ... the CD would not read.... if it was a pretty popular game there might be a newer download or patch you can install so that it will work but other then that i dont think you can.

standby light flashes tv wont turn on

if it is a projection t.v its not recomended because if picture burn in unless your game has alot of action and changing scenery than it should b fine but something like guitar hero or games with the same scenery for long periods of time it is not great
