I bought a ps3 1 year ago and also bought the ps2 to ps3 adapter for the controller. Everything was working great until playstation decided that the machine needed an update. Now when I try to use the steering wheel, as soon as you press the gas pedal, the engine of the car will wind out and blow the engine. Also, the ps3 isn't recognising the controller through the adapter like it used to (it still recognises the controller through the ps2 setup but not the ps3 setup) Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thats not the answer I was hoping for, lol. But I thank you for your response. I've looked hard for weeks trying to find another adapter, there are none to be found right now. Besides that, I really think it has to do with the down load from playstation that messed things up. It used to work perfectly.

Thanks for the information. Do you know if the steering wheel is out on the market yet ? And how pricey do you think it will be ? I'm a big nascar fan, so do you expect that the wheel will work for the easports titles ? Sorry for all the questions. I just found this web site this morning (and im very glad I did). It's been very hard to find answers to my ps3 problems.

Well, you were right ! I contacted "Mad Catz", and Sony did place a block on their steering wheel. Oh well...... looks like more money is going to be coming out of my pocket .......
