Guys, i got a problem with my PS3. When i turn it on, it told me to connect my controller via USB and on it. After that, it told me to put Firmware 4 or latest on a USB device and connect it to the PS3 so i dl the FW and put in my USB and connect it. But after the firmware update almost finish(at 99%) It wrote "Serious problem occured. Contact your technical support" or smth like that. Should i send my PS3 for repair or is there any other solutions ?

I tried doing so and thats when i got the error

I checked the error code which is 80002F281 and most of the people said that it is a hdd problem. My warranty was over a year ago so i would like to format the HDD via PC. Any tutorials? I already plugged the PS3's HDD to my PC but it cant be detected at My Computer. I checked at Computer Management and the HDD is definitely connected but the only way to format it is to make it appear at My Computer. Any help would be nice

I tried to download the swissknife but most of them are not compatible with Win7.

I inserted back my HDD(not yet format) to the PS3 and now it said correct hard disk not found. Any idea? I already fit it tightly

EDIT

Is my HDD already corrupt even that it can be read via PC? I hope someone will answer this before i buy new HDD tomorrow

I actually did the same thing last night but it still came up with "No correct hard disk was found". Before i opened my HDD from PS3 for the first time, i got an error about the firmware cant be updated. After i opened the HDD and tried to format it via PC(but hasn't done yet), i try to put it back to the PS3 but it already said "No correct hard disk was found". Any idea ?

Guys, i have this problem with my Ps3 when i try to set up the wireless connection, it ask me to hold AOSS button which my router and PS3 controller(obviously) dont have. How can i set my wireless connection now?

It works thanks
