If your PS3 has the following symptoms:

- On start, PS3 Green light comes up but nothing happens. No sound or video.
- Insert game or any disc into the slot, blue blinks and again nothing happens.
- Try to assign wireless controller, nothing happens.
- Try restart the console, unplug it for a while, or keep it on for long time again does not solve the problem.

...this video will fix your problems!

Unfortunately, I rushed making this video so its not very professional, please forgive me!

By the way, this method doesn't work 100% of the time, on the contrary, its success rate is less than 50%.

If this method doesn't work for you, try this: http://blogallalong.com/2008/12/05/ps3-green-light-on-and-system-wont-start/

If you have any questions at all please leave a comment.
