Having a PS3 problem Can Anyone Help??

spartans_20 · 06-03-2009, 02:04 PM

Everytime I press my PS button in the middle of my controler it freezes up while going to the other screen, I was wondering if anyone has had this problem and did anything to fix it?

Thnks

This is a malfunction that happened with some kind of update I don't recall at the moment, or just a malfunction. You can try to re-register your controller. There is a pinch-hole on the back of it - press it, than plug your controller into PS3 and press PS button to re-register. If the problem persists, your best choice is to call Sony, they will replace it for free, I've had a friend do this. Notice that if you have broken the seal on the side of the PS3, Sony will not repair the PS3 for you, so I hope you have not.
