guys.. i got some problem la. i just bought new hdmi cable today because my old hdmi cable (cheapo one) seem not work perfectly, (tend to lost signal sometimes). i want to play with my lcd monitor which dont have hdmi port. only got dvi port. so i use the dvi-hdmi converter. But the problem is, my new hdmi cable not work. and i dont know somehow my monitor unable to detect my ps3. i try use my hd media player also not working. Then i change back, to my old hdmi cable, and its working, include my hd media player working as well. But, when i use my new hdmi cable to my tv its work perfectly. Does its mean my new hdmi cable faulty or it just cannot use with dvi-hdmi converter? my new hdmi 1.4v thou. Hope anyone can help. thanks.

QUOTE(GamersFamilia @ Jun 11 2011, 06:48 AM) may be the converter itself not compactible with the v1.4 hdmi , why dont you buy dvi-hdmi cable and try out  yeap! that the right answer bro. full mark. hehe..  actually, the dvi adapter can only work with with hdmi v1.3. and not support hdmi v1.4. really waste my money buy that hdmi cable. =.="

Then after install, the game run like usual. When i want to play online, it said that the new firmware is needed. (use 3.61 ATM). Then i quick the game and want to off my consoles, as i plan to download the firmware through my pc. But then suddenly my PS3 freeze and hang. It give three times beeps, and freeze. No menu on the screen. Nothing. My screen turn black all of the sudden. Controller also wont work. Then i eject the d*** using manual button and the disc come out. But when i try to turn if off, it cant. I dont know what happen, but it seem i cant turn it off. I try pressing the power button and hold, still my PS3 wont turn off. Case like this not always happen. iinm, this is 2nd time, since i own PS3 about a month. Super scared right now. Guys, help me pls.

QUOTE(nwk @ Jul 12 2011, 11:34 AM) So basically you are saying you don't have a psn account and only try to go online after you played MMA. Usually when game freeze and disc is ejected, the ps3 would give 3 beeps and reboot itself. Your case however is strange, it could be firmware problem or HDD problem. I recommend you update to firmware 3.66 and try to go online and if your ps3 freeze again, then it's a hardware problem and you need to send it for repairs. Just update to 3.66. Then i manage to play my MMA online through 7days trials. 1st time attempt to play online. Its really super great experience. Even thou its slightly lag, due to my poor internet connection, overall i really enjoy it. However i loose by TKO. haha.. Later will try play online with my upcoming tittle kz3 and socom 4 that will arrive this thursday.

QUOTE(nwk @ Jul 12 2011, 03:56 PM) that should be ok. you can even play it for 4 hours a day and it's still okay. just make sure you put the ps3 on a place that has plenty of ventilation. talking about ventilation, i place my PS3 like this.  is it ok bro? Im usually play around 2hours for each session. and around 5 - 6 hours a day.  pls advise. thanks.

QUOTE(nwk @ Jul 12 2011, 04:56 PM) l suggest giving more space to your ps3. it's too near to the wall. What is that big thing on the right of the ps3? really? the space between my ps3 and the wall around 10 inch. while the space between my ps3 and my rig is 4 inch. oh. that my rig. using haf 922 case. kinda hardcore pc gamers back then. just migrate to console about a month.

QUOTE(nwk @ Jul 14 2011, 03:28 PM) psn account is optional. if you don't want to play online games, then just play offline. however, once you experiance online gaming you will never look back just like that guy a few pages back did, when he found out the pleasures of online gaming. +1000  Added on July 14, 2011, 4:02 pmQUOTE(mhyug @ Jul 14 2011, 03:21 PM) fuu this psn account thingy is confusing then choosing a ps3. you buy a ps3--?you register for warranty--then do you have to cr8 a psn account or its just an option for you to get online(goodies, games lan etc etc and all the thing that comes with the internet) i thought ps3 games pakai disc??bla masa ada download pulak??this download like pc games ka(you some what install)?? man i have a long way and a lot to know before my time of consoling arrives.... actually. its simple things bro. yeah. it might kinda confusing if you dont have ps3. but once you have ps3, you will see and understand step by step. just get ps3 first. the learn slowly. its better this way, than you learn but dont have ps3.
