I'm experiencing an ongoing issue with my PS5 where, upon powering it on, I encounter a black screen. The console's background music and joystick sounds play intermittently, indicating that the system isn't completely unresponsive. Despite testing different HDMI cables and ports, the issue remains unresolved. My TV, which has HDR capabilities, also doesn't show any video output.
While playing certain games such as Astro's Playroom and GTA V, I've noticed visual artifacts on the screen. In more severe instances like God Of War, these games freeze, resulting in a system-wide black screen that even persists in Safe Mode.
Additionally, some games (Elden ring) launch to a black screen after the safety warning, although the audio continues. On some occasions, the console experiences crashes, which trigger a system shutdown and hard drive repair sequence upon restart. However, after the repair process completes, the screen remains black. (a very random situation as you guys can see)
I've extensively searched various platforms, including GBAtemp and other forums, for a solution but haven't found any. I welcome any help or suggestions to resolve this issue.
Update: Still no luck with my PS5 black screen issue, guys. I've tried more suggested fixes I found online. I've tested different HDMI cables, ports, and TV settings. Games are freezing any new ideas? All help appreciated!
