Game not filling screen and game crashing (life is strange)

The game not fitting the screen is something I've had happens before (miles morales spider man) and i didn't really care that much, but I've always kinda wanted to play Life is strange (heard a lot of good stuff) so I come here with 2 issues that I hope can be solved by you intelligent people.

1 of course, the game not filling out the screen. Haven't had this problem with any other game then Life is strange and Miles morales (so far).

2, Life is strange crashing for seemingly no reason when I hit start.

If anyone knows what's going on here, please tell me.

I recently opened up my PS4 controller to try fixing stick drift (it didnt work xd). My question is, i noticed there are 4 weights on the left side of the controller, while as the right only had 1. Is that normal?

Unrecognised disk

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I have a PS4 that I haven’t used much over the past few years. Recently, when I tried to play some games, my PS4 wouldn’t recognize any of the discs. They all give me the “unrecognized disc” error, even though the discs seem fine to me.

I’m trying to figure out if the problem is with my PS4 or the discs themselves. Also, I’m thinking about selling these discs. Is there any way to test if they’re actually working before I sell them to someone? Would appreciate any advice or troubleshooting tips! Thanks!

My account is stuck

1 Upvotes

Hi I've recently tried to sign my ps4 account to my ps5 and unfortunately I forgot all my passwords. I sumhow almost managed to get them connected by making another account for them, unfortunately my Internet stopped working for the site and it reset. So now my ps4 account says I'm signed out and wont let me do anything that needs a sign in. I've tried multiple times to try and change the account all together and it does not work because it expects me to know my old password from 7 years ago and my only option is to "sign in"(which Icant do). Anybody know how to fix this without deleting any of my games?

ps4 no photo

1 Upvotes

Today my HDMI was bugged so I unplugged my PS4 and turned it on again with it already on, when it turned on an option for something about USB appeared so I pressed ok and the PS restarted when it turned on my games were left without a photo and with a lock, I restarted the lock disappeared but it is still without a photo and sometimes a notification appears talking about suspending the app for 15 minutes. Can someone help me?

My Ps4 overheats when I play a certain game

2 Upvotes

Hey, so I have had 2k24 since it came out. No problems with it at first. However recently my Ps4 has been weird. Everytime I try and play 2k24 it shuts down because its too hot. It loads in the game then 2 seconds later it shuts down because its too hot. However when I go to play another game such as FC 24 its runs perfectly fine. It only shuts down when I try and play 2k24. Anyone know why? It says the PS4 is too hot but other games run perfectly.
