Console Problem Hi, the game loads but then when it gets to the start screen it just doesnt accept it when i press the x button. Could this be that the controllers are too old and need replacing??

That supposed to mean the game has already loaded. When you see the game picture and the half-disk, choose the game picture and select "Start". Your game should start after viewing a white screen and pressing A button.

Ok, follow these steps to fix your PS3, unfortunately you will lose your save game data!!

Step 1. Turn your PS3 off into standby (red light on)

Step 2. Press and hold the power button. It will beep when you first press it, beep again 5 seconds later and then beep once more and turn off. Release the power button.

Step 3. Press and hold the power button. It will beep when you first press it, beep 5 seconds later and then there will be 2 quick beeps together. Release the power button when you hear these 2 beeps.

Step 4. The PS3 will start up asking you to connect a controller via USB and press the PS button. Do this and then go onto the next step.

Step 5. A menu will load. Select option 5 "Restore PS3 system". The console will ask you if you are sure, just accept and then the PS3 will restart. All the original software will be loaded and you will need to enter the date and time and other details.

When you have done all this your PS3 should be fully working again.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa

Your Action Replay DS hardware may require resetting if you are experiencing any of the following problems: * Code Manager PC software is reporting that Action Replay DS does not contain enough free space when it actually contains no codes. * Code Manager PC software is reporting the console`s battery is low when it?s actually fully charged. * Multicoloured bars are shown on the screen after you confirm the entry of a game ID when trying to manually enter codes. * You can use the Code Manager PC software without any problems until the Action Replay DS is connected via USB set to the update mode on the console, at which point Windows shows a run time error. If you are experiencing any of these problems, please follow the steps below to reset the Action Replay DS hardware. Please beware that resetting the Action Replay DS hardware will not restore a default codelist, and any codes which are stored on the Action Replay DS will be erased. With your console powered off insert the Action Replay DS Hold down buttons A+B Turn your console on With A+B still held down, as soon as you see the Action Replay DS license screen press and hold down buttons START+SELECT so that you now have 4 buttons held down Hold all 4 buttons down for around 10 seconds until the Action Replay DS loads to it`s home screen If Action Replay DS doesn?t hold on the license screen for around 10 seconds when you do this, you may need to turn off and try again whats an ard? from code junkies

hi my sony PS3 playstation console won't load any games or read them; i ahve hardly played the console and only had it 10 months. PLEASE IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS TO FIX THE CONSOLE PLEASE ADVISE URGENTLY AS I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO; I AM STUCK!!

the console is from asia; a region free console

Pllease reply urgently


thanks nathan

okay the same dang thing happened to me and i do have an answer but make sure you keep this in mind in the future the most likely reason that happened was while the action replay was saving you turned your game off don't do that i did it twice and well it sucks big time but in case you do it again save this to your desktop by copying and pasting on a notepad okay! the fix is simple: Try resetting the hardware by following these steps:
1/ With the console powered off, hold A+B.
2/ Power up the console while still holding A+B.
3/ As soon as the Nintendo screen is displayed, before our screen stating this product is not endorsed by Nintendo, press and hold Start and Select while keeping hold of A+B.
4/ Continue to hold these buttons until the Main Action Replay screen is displayed, then release. Your product is reset, and will accept codes once more.

also afterwards you need to know a game id ill give you my metroid game's click add new game and type in a letter or two randomly and click the next button thingy then type in 

AMHE-187B29B5 and click next after that have your game in the action replay and start the game up as soon as you see your games beginning credits you can switch off the ds and it will then be able to be updated!

also after you fix your ds spread this on forums like this one as answers to people's questions so that other people won't spend forever finding an answer like we did!

Hi, when the ps3 is on standby. Press and hold the power button on the front for over 5 seconds, it runs the optimal settings screen and auto selects the best option for the cables fitted. hope this help
