I'm posting this here, but I also PM'd S0N0S.




Look. This is a comedy of errors. People are thinking that two beeps is the key. It's NOT!

Look at the first post of this thread:

There's instructions there on how to get into safe mode.

Note that it says the two beep thing is ONLY for IF the light is ORANGE.

So what he needs to do is this:

1) STOP FUCKING SWITCHING INPUTS

2) Plug the PS4's HDMI into HDMI Input 2

3) Set the TV to HDMI2

4) Make sure the PS4 does NOT have the hard drive plugged in and that the PS4 is completely turned off.

5) Now, Touch the power button the PS4 and hold it in for 7 seconds. Hopefully this will put it into safe mode. DO NOT SWITCH INPUTS WHILE IT'S DOING THIS. The system has to do handshaking with the TV.


So much fucking this.
 
i just got home from work.

so pretty much everyone is watching a guy try to fix his ps4 on twitch and making fun of him for being bad at it? thats it right?
 
Apparently he was bragging about being a hardcore PC gamer earlier.

yeah about that

I know someone who pays a guy to deal with all of his PC gaming issues for him. Just sayin.

THIS. This is what I was thinking of. He is just like Cartman in the Tourette Syndrome episode.

It's reaching levels of absurdity the way in which they have fucked it up. and its hilarious.
 
Well this thread and what I have watched of the stream has given me some laughs. I would keep watching, but I am getting terrible flashbacks of when I used to do PC tech support.

Me too. I've gone into his stream 3-4 times, but can only handle a minute or so before my 'dealing with idiots' PTSD kicks in.

Some people are stupid at the best of times. Add technology to the mix, and their stupidity sinks to new depths.
 
WOW so it's his fault and not some faulty PS4 unit, good to know. He is either very unlucky or completely stupid. The latter seems more reasonable, evidently.

THanks man and everyone else.

I wouldn't go so far as to say it's -completely- his fault... But he's made poor choices.
 
So we know this thing was his fault, what about the OP? I saw a few other streams that were on for hours and they aren't having problems.
