PS4 Slim won't start

Eichhörnchen · 02-06-20, 03:31 PM

My son's PS4 (not connected to internet) says something like it is 'checking storage status... PS4 will strart automatically once this has finished'

The progress bar then gets to 24 and a message comes up: "Cannot start the ps4... ensure dualshock controller is plugged in using the usb cable, then press the PS4 button". But when I do, it does nothing but begin the same routine

I'm wondering if I damaged thr controller by dropping it this morning (trying to get his clothes out of the drawer for school)... it all looks okay and lights up, but I know nothing about any of this and because it keeps saying "plug in the controller" I can only think that it's not being recognised, owing maybe to damage. I've chechecked the usb cable which looks fine
