My OH has injured his leg and is sat in a cast for 3 mths...he is somewhat bored rigid and I'm trying to help but am not playstation savvy!!..nor IT really!
We have a Toshiba AV55* Digital Series TV. He wants to play call of duty black ops on his new playstation but it keeps blacking out for a few seconds...by which point he's shot dead...not his skills he assures me
I have searched the net and they all advise its something to do with the resolution as we are using a HDMI cable.
At this point I am lost. I am unsure what res the TV is how to fix it and whether he needs this HDMI cable?!!
The next problem I then have to tackle is the surround sound but that can wait!
Pleeeeeeeeease Help, for my sanity and his boredom!

Sounds like the cable is dodgy and loose at the ends, try another cable or use a composite cable if the tv has the support.0

Iv'e checked the cable on you tube they say its a hand shaking problem and the res but I dont understand all that and how to fix it0

Whats a composite cable?0

I have a PS2 (don't use it much) but it came with a composite cable which looks like this (don't know about PS3)
This cable also can have an adapter for scart socket on the tv end.0 -
Ah I think he has attached the HD cable and that one!0
