arr? my hdd cannot detect by new ps3??? gosh...
then how???

not all can be fixed. sometimes they just give a new one to replace the broken

send your unit to singapore
since your warranty is already over, you have to pay for the repair
if it can be repair, then no prob
if it cant, you have to call customer support to deactivate the console.
some lower-tiered personnel dont know about the deactivation.
demand to speak with their manager/etc.

^ i tot here can deactivate the ID???
if can then anyway to backup my games saved files???

that page is only for deactivation of psp only not ps3

all saves are lost forever if they cant repair the console

^ can i login my ID in my friend's PS3 and deactivated there???

nope

activate means activate on that machine. same goes to deactivation

once activated 5 times, you cant even activate on the 6th machine

maybe you can ask the ppl who shared with you to deactivate on their machine

but those dlc associated with that id will stop working on that machine

@vorchiel thanks for the info. now they ask me to contact them via phone. contact them via phone mahal gilerrr sbb dorang kat US

i had the same problem when my ps3 port struck by lighting.. end up sell of the unit n bought new 1

i don think that serious gua -.-
coz it's my controller's problem
i'll try reset the controller
thanx for the comment

RCrex,

i got a new set because of that problem.. so i guess it must be serious.

Why don't u just bought a wireless router? Its way cheaper that way and sheild your PS3 from lightning damage from talikom's line.

Hey i wanna ask something. My friend said last time someone put a *ahem* ps1 game in a ps3 and the whole ps3 console locked it and cannot be use anymore. Is this true? and before he told me this i put a *ahem* ps1 disc inside and it can see the data folders but nothing went wrong though. I am just afraid my PS3 will be spoil in the future. Sorry i just bought a PS3 and i am quite noob.

KES 400A


here are some technical details

number of reflectable/focus transparent materials. : more than 10. Combi of cheap plastic and some very thin glass.
number of ICs: 1 (less than 2~3 mm ^ 2)
number of magnet : shud be around 3
number of motors: 1+1 = 2
number of springs: 1
number of laser diode : 3, 1 main, 2 side diodes,
number of resistor: more than 30.


possible failure reasons:
1. IC failure highly unlikely
2. motor 1 failure(which adjust the focus) highly unlikely
3. 1 or more diode failure. maybe..

other possible reasons,
1. electrical surge which may fry the super tiny ic
2. software problem which destroy the instructions set in the tiny ic

other stuff used to glue the pieces together:

1. Super tiny screws
2. Super Glue.. Yeah.. i mean it.
3. Plasticine .... (feels like it) to hold the main diode.
For this.. all i can say is: WTF?!..


result: garbage.
