My PS3 just froze all of a sudden. Now when I turn it on, it usually doesn't do anything except the lights turn on like usual but no video or no sound. I know it isn't working because when I press the home button on the controller, the lights flash looking for a PS3 to connect to. Sometimes, the sound will play but the video will freeze at the Sony screen. Another time it worked but I went to change the video settings and it froze when I changed the setting. What should I do???

It's been longer than a year so I don't think I'm covered by Sony's warranty.

if youve tried reseting it the next thing to dso is call the SONY help line. The number will be on the SONY PLAYSTATION website and in the booklets tht cum wif ya playstation. They will giv u things 2 try which might resolve th problem, if all this fails you will have 2 send it in 2 them. The helpline is very good, ive had 2 call them
