Dude are you sure it was the drive. it might be a hardware malfunction Some where in the PS3 Or a Wicked Software Error.
-
its probably the Blu-Ray controller that has failed, and both of your Drives work fine.
-
most likely then its a problem thats on the motherboard. And its a pretty big motherboard.
-
so is there any fix to that? or am I in trouble? i really dont want to spend thousands of dollars to fix it lol.
-
Well, its a new PS3 fix you see, as the Mobo has the CPU and GPU and Ram soldered to it, so its like 60% of the console.
-
also, if you aren't doing anything with that extra blu ray drive, i'll take it to make a laser pointer with :yess:
-
well actaually i have 3 lasers now lol but im going to maybe try to sell two of them, anyways so theres no fix really or do i need a new motherboard?
-
sure yeah don't wanna send me one? I could use it to burn things...
-
You need a new Mobo, as everything is on the mobo, there isnt a Blu-Ray Daughterboard that the the drive plugs into, its all housed as one thing.
-
*sigh* well i better start saving more money lol, well thanks everyone for all your help.
-
well i bought a new one so ... problem solved. :) back to warhawk YAY add me - SSixaxiSS
