DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Fantasy & Gaming PS3 users.... help with my controller issue

Well I went downstairs to play some UTIII tonight. I picked up the controller, hit the PS button and turned on the PS3. Well the little lights on the controller never stopped flashing, and never connected to the PS3. So I tried the other one. Same thing. If you connect it to the USB cable, it still works, but not wireless.

I turned it off and back on again. Nothing. What's the deal? Something with the Bluetooth connectivity, but I can't figure out why it just stopped working. Any ideas?

You might need to recharge the controller. That could be the problem since it works when you plug the cable in.

I got it working.

It was charged, I tried the one that had been plugged in for the past week as well. I turned it on again and it reconnected that time for some reason.

This is weird, it's happened to me about twice also.

Today after I was done playing Madden I hit the button and selected the turn off system as usual. But this time the system light kept blinking and it never shut off. So I turned off the main switch in the back and that fixed the problem.

I don't know, sometimes it does weird things, but it's not frequent enough to cause any significant problems so far.

Yeah, that's the only time it's happened to me.

The only other problem I have is with Folding. It ran fine until a couple months ago when I updated to 1.3. Since then, it freezes up my PS3. Sometimes it runs, but when I try to shut it down, it completely locks up the PS3.

I know I can delete and reinstall it, but will it delete all of my info?

Do you mean your progress of how much information that you've calculated for Stanford? or how many numbers you've crunched?

HHHmmmm, that's a good question, I guess the only way to find is to do it. But I would imagine that since your Ps3 #(whatever it is) is in the database it may not mess up your info.

Yeah, the numbers. I haven't used it for a month or more because it's been messed up.
