The number represents the region number. In this case, this is R2.

1. In the XMB, select 'Settings'.
2. Select 'System Update'.

Make sure you connect your USB drive first. You can find how to update via USB on the Page 1 of this thread.

what is HDMI splitter ? the hdmi cable connects directly from ps3 to the tv.
*
ic.... the splitter splits 1 connection into 2.... it's mainly for TV with only 1 HDMI port....
if you don't have it, then maybe the cable is the problem like what Gaia34 said...

Guys, i need some opinion here.
Can the tv in the link support 1080i?
Since the resolution is 1366x768, so it support 720p right?
*
It's HD Ready TV, not Full HD.

Can't support even 1080i?
Sorry newbie in lcd tv here.

Me newbie too. laugh.gif
Better get the Full HD TV for best result. Price difference is not that big from HD Ready TV.

Some games are region-free DLC, some games aren't.

It's better for you to google first to see which games are region-free DLC.

my game is just ff13(r1) and ff13-2(r2), do they got dlc?
*
For FF13, i don't think there'a a DLC. I might be wrong.
For FF13-2, yes there are some DLC. FYI, I've tried the weapon DLC and they are region-free. So, I think the rest are also region-free.

any different on PSN account if it m'sia or US account? like region restricted games n etc?

Depend on the game.

juz gotten my ps3, but there is no input detected on my monitor. so i would like to ask the type of DVI needed to use.
user posted image
as per the above picture, does i need the exact DVI pin where it is 3 on left and right side while middle is missing 2 pin?

as the hdmi(f) - DVI (M) i'm using, the DVI(M) has full pin which is different from the above. is this the cause of no signal?

prompt reply is appreciated. sad.gif

using dell u2311h btw and the monitor is HDCP supported

Have you changed your display setting to HDMI?
If not, here's how:

currently i am using a monitor which i have to use my HDMI convert to DVI port. For the sound, i still use the Y cable to connect to the cable from ps3 so got sound and video at the same time. If i am going to buy a new monitor with HDMI port. I still can use the Y cable which i used earlier and it still got sound right?
*
I think yes.
You can enable Audio Multi-Output in Sound Settings via XMB.

ouch. i guess running on mobile broadband sucks.

just wondering how much data does it consume to play? lik 100mb /hour or something?

cuz i have 4gb of quota only..
*
If you're considering mobile broadband, go for Maxis. Quite consistent. I can even play GT5 online with it.
But you have to DMZ and the Maxis should be used solely on PS3.

As for data usage for online, in GT5 case I roughly used about 300 to 400mb for about 2 hours of online play.

The 300-400mb is just my estimates.... it could be less.... but not more....

Are there any RM 20 PSN cards? I have something to buy but I don't need a RM 50 card and certainly not a RM 100 card that KLCC and MV sells.

Thanks.

I never see one. Not sure if it's available.

Or you can use your credit/debit card in MY PSN.

true what ... only sony stores can sell those malaysia PSN cards , they control the market .. need to update your wallets must go to sony style or sony centre

thats why as you can see many seller including in LYN dont sell those MY psn cards .. sony malaysia put high price ( for the cost pricing ) , profit like peanuts ! .. anyway most PS3 gamers here in Malaysia go for US psn , US psn cards more easy to find compared MY psn cards  whistling.gif

so no marketing strategy here , blame sony malaysia !  laugh.gif

agree with you.... smile.gif
that's why nowadays i don't buy cards for MY PSN.... use debit card easier.... thumbup.gif
