Whenever I shut down my PS3, it beeps 3 times before it goes off. I looked on Sony's site and couldn't find anything about it. Does anyone know what the problem is? It just started doing this today.

Mine has always done that.

I think it means that the system was in the middle of a process (ie. saving to the hard drive) when the system was shut down.

Also, do you shut off from the controller or do you press the power button?

I know if you shut down by the power button you will get the beeps but if you shutdown by the controller the ps3 will shut down when it is done. I would give Sony a quick call for peace of mind.

I'll try that on Monday. I would imagine it would be a lot of fun to call them on Sunday.

I shut my down by the remote, I quite all my games from the controller and shut down from the dashboard...I have never heard those beeps.
