Thanks.  It's been real irritating, especially since connecting it to a different HDTV didn't seem to work either.

I had to do that with mine. Its weird, but if you hook everything up normally and power it up while holding the power button it will reset the video connection.

So turn on the tv and then hold down the PS3 power button?

[Sideswipe]

Yes.

Try holding down the power button for like 30 seconds or until it beeps a couple times to reset the video connection.

That's what it was. I couldn't remember what it was to reset it.

Good News!  Found out that the problem was with the HDMI port.  It was loose and thus could not connect.   Managed to obtain a HD Component cable from Gamestop and I can now use my PS3 again.  Problem now is how to fix the picture quality since it's worse than before.

[Pak-Man]

Component is always worse than HDMI. It shouldn't be WAY worse, but HDMI is the superior technology.

[The Lurker]

Yeah, but are there any menu options that will make it look better than it does now?

PSN is still down for me... 

I can't play any of the "free" games that I've downloaded as part of the Plus program.  I'm not sure if it's because of the outage & not being able to log in, or if it's just a weird coincidence that my Plus membership happened to expire at the same time that the network went down.  (Can't log in on the web either to see if that's the case.)

Now that PlayStation allows you to change your user I changed my old dusty one into one far more familiar... Russoguru. Feel free to add me.

Tried to add you but it gave an error saying "this user is not accepting friend requests right now"

crap, sorry I think I need to adjust my account settings.

Okay and done. I've changed my settings so anyone on PSN can send me a friend request. Thanks K1!
