my controller doesn't seem to charge..
the console is only a few weeks old, and it was working fine and i've recharged it once already, but when i try and recharge it from my PC the lights flash for a few minutes and then stop.
when i plug it in to the PS3, only 1 light comes on and it works fine.

the PS button turns it on wirelessly, but after that the 4 lights flash for a while then turn off
the PS3 doesn't recognise the controller after this presumably because it's dead
is this a common problem?

-edit, i just tried to charge it via the console. the lights flashed for a 5 minutes and then stopped.
it won't sync with the console unless it's plugged in.

thought it was properly broken and was going to shout at someone, but i couldn't even find a number to phone..
come to think of it, this did happen directly after i installed the latest firmware :p
