Hello guys,
need some help here,
After not playing my ps3 slim 320gb for a month, today I try to play fifa12 and my ps3 lagged for 10s and then ok for 2s and then continue lagged for 10s and so on keep on lagging.
I also try some other games but it continue to keep on lagging.
I try to quick format but it does not shows any good results. I'm so confuse now.
I leave my ps3 in standby mode and last game I played was fifa12.
Anyone can help me ?

QUOTE(snipersnake @ Oct 21 2012, 12:07 AM) its your hard disc dying. Really ? Yesterday I tried to full format which takes about 19 hours but still the systems is slow,, Usually when I inserted the game bray it will continue to load fast, but this time it's slow,, Very confuse now because I pretty sure that the last time I played it last month was ok, and now suddenly it becomes like this,,

QUOTE(BobThe Builder @ Oct 21 2012, 09:00 PM) I'm having almost similar problem as yours. Games that are run from Bluray get stuck. But games that are run from my HDD not stuck. I suspect it's the lens. Here's a suggestion: Try downloading a game from PSN (Demo better, coz it's free) and see if the game can run smoothly from your HDD. If it's smooth, then your lens might be the problem. Thank you, will try that this weekend. Btw, how much that u spend for repairing your lens ? One more thing, why did the lens go faulty ? Got any advice ?

QUOTE(snipersnake @ Oct 23 2012, 12:17 AM) the game uses your hdd as a cache. thats why it is stuttering. if the lens is problematic, it will skip, not stutter. that and it will take quite some time for the ps3 to load the game. Anyone knows where can I trade in or sell my whatever-faulty-my-ps3 is ? Not sure if people wanna buy my 320gb white slim ps3 but I'm thinking of buying a new one and if I can get rm400 from selling it then its good enough for me.

QUOTE(BobThe Builder @ Oct 28 2012, 03:24 PM) My bluray is back to normal now. No more skipping/stuttering. Method used: Cleaned the lenses with microfibre cloth. No alcohol used. Bought the special screwdrivers at Lowyat Plaza. Reason for DIY: couldn't find the Bluray Lens Cleaner. /justsharing Really ? Wow, good for you. I still don't know what's wrong with mine and going to send them to technician for repair but my father wanna buy me a new one next weekend. Guess I'm gonna send them to the technician to see what's really wrong with it. How's the new super slim ps3 ? Has anyone here bought it? I wanna know the feedback.

Hey guys, so I bring my ps3 to the technician and they remove the hd and it turns out to be faulty and to buy a new one they offer me rm380 for a new hd for my ps3.
But as my parents were there, my parents insisted me to buy a new one and I bought the new super slim one.
About my old ps3 slim one, is there any way I could remove the hd myself and buy new cheap hd ?
You guys know where which type of hd I can buy ?
