dharmilstar Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 ok. thanks for the heads up. anyway, one last thing. some of the hdd's have SATA mentioned. some of them dont. all of them are 2.5" hdds. will it make a difference for the ps3 ? yes it makes a big difference. only SATA 2.5 inch hard disk work in ps3. so make sure its SATA and not IDE. however you can opt for any rpm and any brand of manufacturers. higher the rpm more, the more heat produced but there is a slight better performance in speed times.

Somebody Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 ^^ Even I used to see the blocks at the edges of my cars in GT5p. But that was only during the pre-race run through or when i zoom during replaysI donno abt fifa 09 I think the disc noise is normal....besides the fact i have never heard a fax machine tongue.gif Try adjusting the display settings of ur TV Maybe be the sharpness is high or somethin like that (i might be wrong) just in case u dint see it in ur other thread i dont know much abt it.

posiedon Posted November 15, 2008 Report Share Posted November 15, 2008 Hey Guys...need some help with PS3... well I have been moving around my ps3 alot and had connected it using normal composite cables and sometimes HDMI... earlier it used to work fine.. Recently I used the HDMI cable via a HDMI-DVI converter (which I got with a graphics card) to connect PS3 to my HDCP LG 22" monitor...and all worked fine until now when I am directly trying to connect the PS3 to my 40" Sony Bravia LCD HD Ready TV via HDMI slot. No display appears but when I keep the PS3 power button pressed while boot-up display appears through Composite cables. Just to clear my doubt I connected the PS3 to my 22" monitor and the display appears (supports max 720p). I tried changing the HDMI cable but still facing the same issue.... any help please? This is the HDMI ->DVI adaptor which I used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
