I herd you like stealing quotes ey?
cos they mess around with the firmware not saying all do but sometimes when you change the hdd there are sometimes problems as sony stated some time back i know as i tryed lots of hdds just to get a good working one.
I would wait till the next update i updated my 60gig with no problem but then i tried it with my 80gig motostorm edition and it killed it at 67% so now everytime it starts up it tries to update it and locks up at 67%. Alot of people are having this problem with 20,40,60, and 80gig ps3's and sonywon't fix there mistake unless your willing to give them $150 if your out of warranty
haha that funny since i haven't herd of anybody release a firmware hack as of yet and mainly affects launch consoles but does corrupt some of the newer ones too
Here is the combo1:turn system off2:hold down power buttom untill it turns on and then turns off3:hold down power button again until you hear a beep keep holding it untill you hear 2 beeps and the do what it tells you to do.
try going into the ps3's recovery menuTO get to this menu try the following to see for yourself:-Place your PS3 in STANDBY mode-Hold the power button until you hear 2 beeps.-If it goes into the video reset setting then you messed up, and do it again till you hear a double beep.see if that helps - im pretty sure thats the right combination to get it to work
all the repairs do is clean the ps3 and change the hdd beleave me i know someone who fixes them its not really worth paying money to someone that you can do it your self cheaper.
