Brock Manson 0 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 Was in the midst of a game of Fifa 09, when the game cut out and the ring of lights around the power button all flashed red. Now the console won't turn on; it'll just flash red. What the fuck is wrong with it? I'd only been on it for 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besty 4 Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 How many lights? If its 3 its fucked. 3 Best thing about that is is that it should be covered under the manufacturers warranty and you'll get it fixed for free. (I think) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44804 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 What is TVersity? Free app that allows you to use your PC as a media server. You install it on your computer and it pops up on your PS3 menu and you can access media files on you computer and play them through your TV. So downloaded TV shows/movies/music etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Nice. So basically a wireless external hard drive? (or using your computer as such) I think I'll give that a shot. Frees up some room on the PS3 hard drive I suppose - I only have the 40 gig one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44804 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Pretty much. Works really well and is dead easy to set up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Sorted - That is awesome Just previewed music/video/picture and it works no problem. Can you have two at the same time because I might set the laptop up as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 Awesome it is able to take sopcast - Get a 700 kb/s stream (with 54 mb p/s wireless) on and you basically have high quality football on your television. Just tried it with a poor stream and it worked fine - audio too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 What's the crack with trading it in? My BC is in perfect condition and I hardly play it! Do you get much for exchange? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay 10 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Not sure, you would probably get more if you sell it on ebay or something. I'm hoping to get at least 20 trade in value for it, which is not bad considering I only got it for 25. I'll let you know on Friday how much I get for it.
