On a Sony 1080i HDTV, my PS3 won't switch out of 480i? Im using component cables. I check all HD resolution boxesin settings (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i). The screen just goes black and it goes back to 480i? What's the deal?

Side note: If I keep repeating this process enough, occasionaly the screen will go to 1080i but after 30 seconds it goes back to 480i and there is no way to save the changes? If I press a button during the 30 second countdown, it also automatically goes back to 480i?

whats going on?

I have a 32" Sony Bravia and when I was using component cables it was always just not doing what it should. Now I am using HDMI on the PS3 and component on the sattelite. With these connections both units run in 720p with no trouble at all. You may want to get a HDMI cable and use it on the PS3.
