Ive only had my ps3 for about 3 weeks now and play on it about every one to two days, so i dont overuse it.

anyway i turned it on today and theres no picture on my tv at all! it takes in discs and ejects them and even sounds fine. also cant see anything wrong with my tv. i was playing on gta iv last night and it was completley fine.

anyone knows whats wrong? help is much appreciated.

reset the settings by holding down the power button for like 10-20 seconds. It might be that its been set to go through a different connection(HDMI, Component, or Composite)

have it in standby, press & hold the power button until you hear 2 beeps, then immediately let go after the second beep.

check and reseat your cables, if resetting doesn't work. And, I am going to play the basic FAQ List questions, make sure your TV is turned on and have the right output selected.

thanks for help guys!

i unplugged the cables and connected them back in and held down the on button untill it reset it. its picked up the hdmi connection again now and finally works. still dont understand why it did it in the first place.

cheers!
