Ok here is what you need to do: (This will erase everthing on the HDD)
1) Turn off your ps3.
2) Turn off the power switch in the back and keep it like that for about 5 minutes.
3) Turn the switch on again but don't turn your ps3 on yet.
4) Hold the power button infront until you here 4 beeps. (Maybe it was 3 I can't remember)
This should wipe everything out including you video settings and revert to factory form into 480i.
This worked for me when my ps3 looked like it bricked.
EDIT: lol didn't see the 2nd page. Well this is a more explained version of trinitrons Idea.
