You can not have a HDMI Cable and a A/V cable connected at the same time on a PS3. Only one spot exists to plug it in at the back of the PS3. If you do not use the A/V cable the came with the PS3 there are optional S video Cables and also Optional Component Cables that can be used for HDTVs besides using a HDMI cable

no
Can you connect your laptop to your tv with a HDMI lead?
Yes, you can in some cases. If your laptop has an HDMI output, a single HDMI lead is all that you will need. Most laptops with an HDMI output also include sound on the connectors but there are some that don't. If your laptop has a DVI connector, a DVI to HDMI lead will work but note that there is never any sound on a DVI connector. If you need to run sound separately, use an analog audio lead. Most televisions have a separate audio input linked to at least one HDMI input that will provide for a separate audio feed.
Can an HDMI cord for ps3 go bad?

What is an HDMI socket on a TV?
On HDMI TVs, on the rear of the set, you will see a squarish plug in near the AV jacks. The HDMI cord runs from the PS3 straight to the TV without AV jacks. You must go into settings on the system and change the AV usage to HD cable. The cable must have a gold colored tip. The store managers say this is actual gold, creating better imaging for the television. They cost around 40.00 for a decent one, but I have personal experience with the cords, they are not worth it. I'd say it truly effects visual gameplay on 50% of games. Fight Night, Madden 11, but not race games like Need For Speed: Shift.

A VGA-HDMI cord can plug into my monitor via the VGA side and the HDMI into the output device. Is the LCD monitor output still going to be analog which would make that cord useless?
When you use a VGA cable coming out of the monitor, the monitor is giving out an analog signal through the VGA connection. For the monitor to give out a digital signal, you need a DVI or HDMI cable. The VGA to HDMI cord just converts the analog signal into a digital signal so it's not completely useless, however the quality will not be as good as an HDMI to HDMI or DVI to DVI or HDMI to DVI
What will happen if you run a hdmi cord from one tv to another?
