How do I connect the Afterglow Controller to my Sony PS3 when the controller doesn't have a USB port on it?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved from Computers to PS3. The controller is wireless and connects to the PS3 using the USB Dongle that plugs into the USB Port on the PS3. How do I pair my Afterglow Wireless controller to my USB dongle?
  1. Plug the new USB dongle into your PS3.
  2. Now, press and hold the Home button (power button) on the controller until the LED on the USB dongle and the 4 indicator LED's on the controller are solid.

How do I fix PS2 Disc Read Error?

It could be the fact that your PS 2 console is very old then now and the mechanics and the parts inside of the console are starting to wear out and are no longer working anymore. You could buy a new one from JJ games and Lukie Games and Eadt Starland games and DkOldies.

I bought a used PS3 at a pawn shop. How do I sign up for a PlayStation Network account if the system only says sign in and has the old users email address in there.

From Google: "From the top level of the PlayStation 3 Home Menu, go to Settings > [System Settings] > [Restore Default Settings]. Once you select [Restore Default Settings], you will see a list of settings that will be restored. Scroll through them and press torestore the settings.Jul 20, 2017" If you search Google for: "factory reset a PS3" you will find only 1,920,000 other results. Enjoy! Anthony

Ps3 has purple lines going across the screen and coloring is greenish

The graphics generator isn't working properly. Perhaps you have a problem with the power supply; that could cause strange noises. I suspect one or more burned-out electrolytic capacitors. A good electrolytic capacitor has a flat-topped cylindrical case, but a bad one may have the top domed outward by excessive internal pressure. badcap-zqp50lyr3oje4ziwbuipidcp-4-0.jpeg Electrolytic capacitors in the sizes typically used in low-voltage electronics are usually low-priced; most are under US $1. I recommend Panasonic FR series capacitors for high ripple current tolerance, long life and decent high frequency characteristics. You can use capacitors with a higher voltage rating and temperature rating, but not lower. The capacitance ("uF") must be the same. Make sure the physical size fits the board and isn't too tall to close the case. Never, never install the capacitor backwards (check the orientation of the stripe on the old one before removing, and compare with the mark that's usually printed on the board under the part). A backwards capacitor will be ruined rather quickly when power is turned on.

I've just got a copy

Taken from a thread on the PlayStation forums: The solution to this one is a real pain. Basically, what you need to do is delete the user from the ps3, create a new user, and assign it to your psn id, and then sync trophies. I'm sure there is an old thread about this somewhere, because I had this error last year, so I won't try a step by step walkthrough, unless you can't find the other thread. Let us know how you get. P.s. as some games are locked to user as well as psn id, create a new user with the same name as your old one, after you have deleted it, if you get what I mean. -answered by hgwells https://community.eu.playstation.com/t5/PS3-Support/Error-8002291A/m-p/18411424
