Hello All,
I'm not too sure where this belongs here to be honest so I apologise in advance if this is incorrectly placed.
My PS3 was setup to output to my monitor via HDMI through a DVI converter. It has worked perfectly for about 9-12 months.
A few days ago I turned my PS3 on having used it perfectly fine earlier in the day only to find that the screen was black. But the light on the monitor was blue indicating a signal. I have tried other cables (both different HDMI cables and an entirely new HDMI/DVI cable), have reset the PS3 and even went into safemode and fixed corrupted errors. There is still no display and the light still turns blue... I contacted Sony who are demanding £110 to have them ship me a refurb (which I told them straight was outrageous to which the man on the end of the phone got very rude). This is now my 3rd PS3... I have forked out loads of money these past few months on games... Christmas is around the corner which means the few I haven't got will probably be under the tree... I really really need a solution if anyone has one.
The monitor works for certain because A) It worked with the PS3 before and B) I'm using it right now with my PC.
Please please please help =(
