QUOTE(kc26 @ Mar 10 2008, 09:15 AM) Can i create PSN account with PC thru this link. or do i have to do it on a PS3. The link seems to not load on a PC or take some time. The link is particularly use to create PN account on your PC, not through your PS3. Account creation is faster here, I've created multiple accounts before without any problem.

QUOTE(kc26 @ Mar 12 2008, 12:39 PM) Thanks man.. you still keep original or you've use it for something else? If go back to Sony for warranty claim.. you need to put back the original ones? I bought SATA casing and use it with my PC. Actually, changing your HDD will not void your warranty. It is allowed by Sony. Even in the manual included with your PS3, there's an instruction on how to change your HDD.

QUOTE(tanghm @ Apr 1 2008, 02:19 PM) Isn't PS3 HDD is using FAT32 File System ?? For external HDD, YES.  But, for HDD inside your PS3, is different, although many suggest that the file system is similar to FAT32. The internal hark-disk is encrypted with a Sony proprietary format, each HDD is individualized, so, it cannot be used in another PS3 unit.

Why don't you use HDMI connection from PS3 to LCD for video and optical cable connection from PS3 to HTS for audio?

QUOTE(jex-koi @ Jun 4 2008, 07:13 PM) Hi guys, I just bought "Ridge Racer 7" game. How do i activate the six-axis motion on my controller, so I don't need to use the buttons? I don't quite remember, but if I'm not mistaken, press either Start or Select button to go to option menu, and select Enable Sixaxis.

QUOTE(mr_hahn_nemo @ Jul 2 2008, 02:02 PM) important!!!.. if we updating then suddenly our house black out... and ps3 is now DEAD.. what must we do?? can we repair it beside sending it to singapore's sony? I read a few cases of this kind of situation. But, somehow PS3 have some kind of recovery system incase of power black-out during updating. So, no need to worry.

QUOTE(tot31 @ Jul 2 2008, 02:49 PM) I don't think so as I remembered snipersnake posted before that his colleague had this situation and his PS3 was totally dead, couldn't even power up and had to send to SG service center for repair and had to pay SG30 for that. Huhu.. really?  then dominiqueX must be lucky that day, coz his PS3 was updating till 43% when electric power black-out.

Yeah, high possibility that dominiqueX was still in updating process in Step 1. Sony should have somekind of backup battery installed inside.

QUOTE(aiyish @ Jul 24 2008, 07:41 PM) i just want to register my PSN first. any steps doing the darn ethernet thingy?? im no good with networking. You can register and create your PSN ID using your PC at the following site: http://store.playstation.com/game/index.vmAre you using the 'soap' Maxis BB modem? I think you need to activate ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) on your PC. So, the connection will be share between PC and your PS3.
