Congrats mate!
get the latest firmware and see if u r issue is resolved
tuner card may be causing the prob since it may not be not for high resolution.
what res r u running at?

tuner card is not the issue.the default AV (1 supplied in box is the composite video cable), so max res supported is 576i.:(

If you have a HDTV or a monitor with HDMI port then you might want to get a HDMI cable. I got mine from Sony World for 600 bucks. Otherwise the graphics would look more or less like PS2 only.

from wat intel i've gathered from around the net the following cud be the sol:
1>HDMI-HDMI male cable
2>HDMI-DVI-D converter
3>any monitor which has DVi input (sud also be HDCP capable) can now display PS3 in its full glory.

@Sunny1211993 sorry bro dont hav the HDTV here.:(

just a noobish q -> is the DVI-HDMI converter thats supplied with gfx cards same as HDMI-DVI converter?i'm mean will the DVI-HDMI converter work the reverse way i.e HDMi-DVI?if this is possible then i'll just buy a HDMI cable.hav a HP W1907 lying around.it has DVI (HDCP capable)

Check this out: *us.st12.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.com/I/dvigear_2036_1858117

If it's similar in shape then it should work for connecting your PS3 to your LCD. Also make double sure the LCD you're buying is HDCP compliant.

EDIT: Just checked & you can get a BenQ E2200HD full HD monitor which has a HDMI port ready & is HDCP compliant as well. So no need to worry about converter & stuff like that. Just plug & play. :)

^Yeah well apparently Asian countries have got it faster than anyone. Actually Game Trailers were the first to secure their copy of the game.
