<div>Thank you for your reply. However I am still encountering the problem</div>
<div>that when I turn the PS3 on the screen is a blank blue screen. I have</div>
<div>never seen a proper PS3 screen anywhere thus far and I am not sure</div>
<div>what to do to achieve this.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks,</div>
<div> </div>
