Hi,

I took my PS3 round to a mates house the other night (as he has an HDTV and I wanted to see the full capabilities of 1080p). Obviously when I set up the PS3 on his tv, within the PS3 display settings I configured it to use an HDMI connection - fine.

I get home, plug the ps3 into my standard tv using the av cable supplied with the PS3 and I have a blank screen. It seems like the PS3 is still set to HDMI and how can I change it back if I can't see anything?! I think this is just a bit crazy..why did Sony not forsee this?! or did they just assume that when its changed to HDMI there is 'no going back'.

I would be grateful if anyone could please help me out yet I think I have no choice but to plug it into an hdtv and set it back to av again...or just buy a Sharp Aquos LC-37XD1E HDTV today (with 1080p) ;) :)

Thanks!
 
Try pressing the power button down for five seconds - I believe thats the hard reset.

To be fair I believe this is common knowledge - and not many people are going to go from an HDTV back to a normal setup. Not to mention the fact that most people have access to a pc to do a google search if they cant read the online instructions first
 
thanks!

I will try this out later - I looked far and wide on the net but didnt stumble across this - couldnt have looked in the right places..
