  1. Try a phone number. That worked for me.
  2. From a certain point a view Macross 7 is as much a departure from Macross TV as Macross Frontier is. Doesn't mean all are not with their merits or issues.
  3. You know what sucks about that? I think I lost all my password to access my router. In any case. I think switching the cables & turning things off worked. Everything plugged back in the right way and had both the PC & PS3 on at the same time. I'll have to use them both a few more times to make it is it not a fluke. Next issue trying to figure out how to host a game. Finally made 4th Level on MGO. Great session. I actually saw getting rewards. Capture the base with pistols only. Encountered one jerk 12th level who cuss people out for "stealing his kills."
  4. I think it is my router. I have a router & modem. If I have PC on & turn on the PS3. I get a DNS error or loose connection on both. Turning on just the PS3 got an error too. Today I discounted the router & connect the PS3 directly to the Modem. Finally can use the PSN and play online. When I go to use the computer it takes some time restarting things up again. I really enjoyed being able to use both my PC & PS3 at the same time.
  5. Yes I cleared the drives before sending it in. My previous PS3 could stay on for about 4 minutes.
  6. I got my PS3 I think in the same month & same year. To answer your question I sent in my 60 gig and got a refurbished 60 gig. It looked like it was in new condition. Time frame works like this 3 days for them to mail you the coffin. 1 day for you to mail it back and another 3 days for it to get mail back to you. It may take longer as they & ups don't work weekends. I think they sent me a new system without checking it. As they sent the replacement out the same day. Only issue I had since was redownloading paid connect that's been fixed. There is a different issue. Which I may have had before. Signing on the PSN. When I turn on the PS3 it automatically connects. As soon as pop in a game that you play online like MGS 4. I get this DNS 80710102 error. I googled it and found a variety of causes & solutions. One cause I read had to do with the PS3 and your computer fighting over the same connection or something of that nature. Could be possible as I tend to lose my computer's connection when the PS3 is used a the same time. As I said I think there was already some connection problems before this. I am in a trial and error phase now.
  7. Good luck. We have agents everywhere.
  8. I bought those back in the day. 100% pure crap those things came broke in package.
  9. Sure is a good number of us Masterminds here.

  11. Well had a call with Sony, went on hold, had to point things out to them, went on hold again and finally got some where. A request is being sent to the proper department. I guess they can fix it all from remote. Problem is they do that even look at those type of requests till Friday. Early next week we'll know.
  12. It's Music from SingStar. No it isn't Roy's game but the owner of the said game uses Roy's system. It has something to due with Music Usage Rights. They can only be downloaded on the machine used to purchase them. Here is where the problem is. If you wanted to repurchase them you can't place them in the cart. You get the message "Already purchased see Purchase History to redownload." You can't redownload the content on a different machine. Sony has that machine. No one here intends to repurchase what was already paid for. Later today a call will be made to Sony.
  13. I assume you gave them your measurements. And do you work at Target?
  14. Bay area isn't that far. Sucks it is in February which it is Winter. I'll take a 3 day weekend when some storm hits between here and there.
  15. Replacement System woes Besides having to restall games and all the required updates for them I have to reinstall purchased content. Most of this is easy but I've reached one hurdle. While there is record of purchases I no longer have the exact same PS3. I was sent a replacement unit of the same model. Some content doesn't want to be redownload because it is associated with another system. That system is in SCEA repair joint in Texas.
  16. Got it and now doing system updates.
  17. I was intending to save the update for tomorrow. After some research I decided the best option was to send it in and pay the $150. Most of that money has to spent on shipping. Things will likely be tight by the last week of the month. You're suppose to get either the same exact unit or the same model. Looking at the dates of tracking information. I think they are sending a new one. No one called or emailed me to tell me what the issue was. I think I will ask them after I get it. I took pictures of old unit before sending it in. As proof I didn't tamper with it and to show there no scratches. I don't want Sony to send me a scratched up refurbished one. I lost all saved information so I will have to replay some games and re-download stuff again. My PS3 arrived in town last night but looks like UPS won't moving it till the expected ETA of tomorrow. I work tommorrow.
  18. Klan is just another fan service character in a Macross series that is all about fan service.
  19. 60 Gig Backwards compatible type. I'm almost positive it is the fan. I didn't special air cooler attached to it. Haven't used can air. I don't see any dust build up. Double checked with a flash light. I did use a vacuum over the vents. Warranty has past but here's the Service catch. Even if your warranty has passed they can decide to refuse service if you tamper with the stickers. The old you must have open it up and did something to it so your on your own excuse.
  20. Every thing is update. Checked so last night. I'm thinking it might be the fan or something. System stays on for about 5 minutes top before getting to hot. I don't hear the fan at all this time. I'll need to research things in the next couple days before contacting the service centers.
  21. God it doesn't end. Read a few forum posts and PS own help pages. Sounds like a send for serving issue. Bad news mine is a few months past warranty. For them to service it I'd have to pay a flat charge of $150 that covers, shipping, repairs or replacement if they can't repair it. Do I even have $150? Do to the economy everyone at work is working less. The money I have left over after bills from my pay check was $100. I have enough money in checking and saving to cover $150 or even a new PS3 but that is suppose to be emergency money. I have new Xmas games and movies. Now I might have to wait two months before I can use them.
  22. Help Needed ASAP During the last 1 hour my PS3 isn't working. I turn it on and get this message that the system is too hot. Here's how I used the system today. 1. Played MSG online for 2 hours straight followed by 1/2 an hour on the web browser. I have used it for long periods before and it has never over heated. 2. Moved the system from under the entertainment cabinet to more easy to reach location with more room for air. I didn't bump or drop the PS3. Planning on taking it to a different location today. 3. After a hour of the system being off popped in the Serenity Blu-Ray two minutes later got a warning that the System was too hot let it rest. Did that for 10 minutes tried a game disc same issue. Waited 30 minutes tried to clear away vents. Turned it on again. Placed in no disc just scrolling around the games and movie clip that are already on it. A couple minute later same thing. Additonal Information: Doesn't feel hot or even warm. PS3 went from an Off position (currently in a cold room) to HOT after a couple of minutes. I think I here regular noises from the machine. I don't hear the fan going in over drive or anything like that. Do I hear the fan? Not sure mine is rarely that loud.
  23. There are reports of problems with the Serenity Blu-Ray being played on the PS3. Lucky me I got my copy in the mail and have a PS3. The following issues have been reported: An extra feature called the Alliance Data Base won't play and the movie will freeze at about the 1:13 minute mark. Haven't watched the movie but I watched the extras. The Alliance Data Base would not play. I followed a solution people posted on other forums. Delete the saved data on your PS3 for the disc. Put it back in and don't update for Blu-Ray live when prompt. Yes you either get to see the data base or Blu-Ray not both. I'll still need to see if it freezes during play.
