The PS3 40Gb 2008 model,white color can no longer play any DVD. If turned on, it automatically turns on the fan and a noise is being generated. After which, you can no longer insert any DVD since it will no longer function.

Video color control is no longer capable of doing color. Trash the whole thing now and save yourself.

Some inputs on tvs won't process the color signal. Try one of the other inputs. Mine does the same. If u have already used the working ones on something else, U will need a switch to select one or the other available at Radio Shack if u can find one.

I think I know what the "skin tones blue" problem is-you probabaly have the composite video(for the old video-on-one-cord format) connected to the blue of the component video input.(component video is the red/blue green RCA type connectors).

dear your tv have three color systems and when you play vcd which is recorded in pal and you watched color when you play dvd which is recorded in ntsc system which is not available in your tv so you watch as black and white

I have sort of the same problem...there was a loud snap(kind of electical spark like) then the unit started humming loudly which changes sound as you move the unit around. The picture remains clear and the fan is quiet in shut down mode...still the wheel you think?

there is a circuit in the color section to put the tv to black and white if the color subcarrier is missing from the broadcast signal.
it is called a color killer and needs to be adjusted.
it is for a technician to do.
it operates off the 3.58mhz color subcarrier.

please enable NTSC. your settings is in PAL. its due to your system PALSECAM.

Could be because it is set to NTSC. Needs to be set to Pal.

I am wondering if this sound might be your color wheel spinning. The color wheel often makes a low humming noise as it spins. Try checking to see if this is not the source of your noise. You need the color wheel to generate the colors needed to turn the B&W picture generated by the DLP into a color picture.

Thank you,
