sup guys, like Im having this weird sound with my ps3. its like someone is knocking it. happens when the ps3 is turned on and a few minutes after its turned off.

is this normal?

i personally think there is something dirty in your room (some ghost maybe)? weird sound from ps3 actually is from the ghost. the ghost is knocking it. when u turn on or turned off he/she also disturb u. plz be careful

Can PS3 be paired to my 3G bluetooth mobile phone to play online games? Please help! Thanks!

ya, thats why I think.. any ghosbuster here ?

i think it's normal..i think it has been asked by someone..the sound quite loud that u can hear it..it's normal if u try to googling around n find some answer.. this because heat released..

heat? hmm, that makes sense.. even after its turned off, can still hear it(prolly due to release heat)

ty

That's just the fan noise. Try putting next to your air con vent. PS3 tends to run hot even when
not playing any discs because of the spinning hard drive inside.

just have 1 question on audio system for the ps3 have any1 connected an external soundcard like sounblaster to the ps3 what model suits the ps3 best i just need an external soundcard with audio input any recommendations from sifus out here.

can i use my ps3 with my asus lcd vw223b?

I'm doing that currently. Connected my PS3 to my X-Fi XtremeMusic.

Basically any soundcards/on-board sound will work as long as theres a line-in jack(yea like what soundcard from this day in age doesn't have one? ).


Asus VW223B is VGA only.
So it basically isn't HDCP compliant and that means you can't use it with your PS3.

Eventhough it has its own EZ Link feature which uses USB for its digital input, the PS3 doesn't support that yet at the moment(please correct me if I'm wrong on this, not entirely sure).

even using the analog 1?
like xbox360

maybe you can via component (but not hdmi/dvi -> vga cable)

you might need something like this http://www.svideo.com/component2vga.html

a) Hi guys, total newbie, here and having some problems with my PS3 (80g from Sony). My TV setup as follows Philips 47” TV (42PFL9532) with full HD connected to PS3 via Sony HDMI cables (white color). At times playing games i.e. Assassin Creed or maybe even in the main screen of PS3, the screen of my TV would flicker in (showing pictures) and out (blank screen) and showing an error message “unsupported video format”. What amazes me is, after a few seconds the screen would come back on again. This would go on a few times and then of all a sudden it stops and maybe re-occur again later. Can you help me on this since afraid the flickering could damage my TV. Is it the setting of the TV/PS3 or the HDMI cable I’m using? Thought the via HDMI all is setup accordingly and I believe my TV is able to cater for the high end reso PS3 offers

Thanks much

Could it be the cable? Sometimes it's loose, or the cable is of poor quality. Otherwise, check the reso options - start at the lowest, and see if there's any difference. I use a 32" Philips LCD, no such problems.

Gfreak, don't worry, anyone can ask questions here. the problem is most times ppl dunno the answer

i don't have a HDTV but from ur description, is it definitely not behaving normally. try unplug/replug the HDMI cable again and test different resolutions. try setting ps3 to [480p+720p] only and try out other games/demos/videos and see if the problem occur.

rgd the wireless setup, mb u can retype the question here. i using normal LAN only and dunno much abt wireless connection setup.

do note that PS3 browser is really lousy, it is quite unresponsive at most times. any old + cheapo PC with firefox >>>>>> PS3 browser
