I just got my HDMI cable and I plugged it into the Ps3 and TV. When I turned my PS3 on, it said "An available HDMI device was detected. Do you want to output video and audio using HDMI?"

I clicked Yes.

And the TV is just black. Its not doing anything. Any help?

on your remote you need to press input button until your tv changes to the proper HDMI mode

you might also have a button that says HDMI just press that

use the composite for now and go to restore factory settings then try again with the HDMI and if it doesnt work its ur HDMI's fault (return it or something)
