    While you're waiting the PS2 Scart/Av cable and even the PS1's RF cable! will work if you have one(picture will be most definitely SD though , and good luck reading small text).You may need to hold the power button down for a few seconds on boot to get them working though

    Trying to buy one in Waterford, been to every single store including Tesco that has anything to do with playstation consoles or games, but no joy. Was told in Gamestop that the same lead does PS2 & PS3 and was told in Smyths that it wont???? Can anyone answer for definite if it does??

    I have one for the PS2 but it does not seem to work for the PS3, so maybe holding down the power button may be what i need to do.

    Afaik you need to hold the power button down until you hear two beeps , this should reset the video settings and should let you use a PS2 AV cable

    That worked a treat, thanks for that, I now have my TV back and the PS3 is in the playroom. :D:D:D

    I presume that I just do the same again to switch back to HD?
