Hi guys and girls,

I have just turned my ps3 on and have no picture. I have checked all the cables (using HDMI), even tried connecting the scart cable in case it had been having a fit and went back to scart. It was working fine the last time I used it and nothing has changed.

Any ideas, or is there a hidden button to reset the ps3 to factory settings? Help and want to finish lego star wars. hahaha

Thanks

Fatboy

Hold the power button down until you hear a series of beeps and then let go, it will then turn off. Then hit the power button again and that should reset the video input.

what he mean is :

go to the settings and then system settings and then try the "restore default settings" or maybe the "restore PS3 system"

Unless you don't mind erasing all your files, I wouldn't "Restore PS3 System"

I have trouble swapping from HDMI to scart, not the other way around. When I plug a HDMI cable in the PS3 picks it up straight away and asks if I want to use it and then runs through the HDMI set up. I would try and get hold of a new HMDI cable remove all other video cables and see what happens with that. if you still get nothing take it back
