http://ps3.thegamereviews.com/story-1474-P...240-Pulled.htmlok guys, after click on the link a both, let's us talk about the fix firmware which is 2.41.
i have been install this 2.41 firmware a few days ago. and after that i found out that the movie clip that i have download is keep on crashing! or the playback is keep on hanging.
And last night when i download some more movie clips, the PS3 is hang up for few times and finally it hangs on the startup! right after the words 'sony' appear, it wont be able to access in the XMB menu.
so is 2.41 really fix the 2.40 problem?
and anyone of you have facing the same problem?
and is there any solution that can skip the formatting progress?
thank you

mine one is 40gb region 3....after updated to 2.41.....got few times my sixaxis cant pair with my ps3......so it force me to use USB cable to connect the controller and console for gameplay......but later.....it paired out of the box.....

i wonder is the firmware 2.41 got problem or my bluetooth hardware got problem..

I crash once when viewing youtube with 2.41,probably cause i open too many youtube window to load that time.

Mine is Asia 60gb
Sometime it kinda lag when i have to check PSN friend msg while playing.

OH GREAT!
now my PS3 need to to replace with a new hdd... it looks like the firmware have destroy the HDD...
the performance is like the HDD is not been proper defrag.... need more time to search or seek for the disk....
after replace a new HDD it's ok, but after copy some movie's to the HDD it started to be a bit of lagging again... aih...
now worst, i cant update the firmware to 2.42.. keep on failing. if download from internet, the PS3 cannot detect the firmware.... strange....
