Post: Help Me!! Black Screen of Death!
03-15-2011, 09:14 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So yesterday I turned of my PS3 and kept getting the black screen of death. I watched some Youtube videos on how to fix it, and they said to just put the PS3 in the Recovery menu and choose to fix it, so that's what I did. But when I click on like "Restore your PS3" i just get a black screen. I'm running 3.55 Geohot. So maybe try and update the firmware to 3.60 OFW? Help!!!:\

Maybe your video settings reset... happened to me before. Hold the power button until it turns off (not from the back). Now you should have your red light on indicating it has power but isn't on. Then hold down the power button. You'll hear the first beep, indicating it started, and keep holding it until you hear the second beep, indicating video settings are being set. Hope I helped
